Interview with Jean Francois (Photographer: Kim)Jean Francois was very delighted that the group jumped with him into the unknown during the one day workshop on “Collective Intelligence”. He felt blessed on the behave that everybody surrendered to the journey and offered him full trust. The purpose of “Collective Intelligence” on the conventional level was full-filled but his wish for everyone to leave with a sense of freedom towards the individual being and the collective won't be answered for him. In the end it is about the essential being and not about a particular goal.

Another women's circle meeting in Auroville (Photographer: Manohar)The women's circle met Wednesday evening to discuss the always-pressing issue of women's safety on the roads in Auroville. One male represented, and new ideas were brought forth. The general sentiment was to release the fear, as we attract what we focus on, as well as to find a way to empower the men who are abusers. An evening group meditation under the banyan tree for protection and more safety checks were proposed. The group struggled to branch the gap between the physical and the metaphysical solutions.
