These selections from the Mother's works reveal the truths behind the facades of old age and death, that they are the habits of Nature, and that the incapacity to grow and progress is the real deterioration into old age. The book has been brought out by ARKA, a community for senior Aurovilians, which is dedicated to manifesting the Mother's vision of Auroville as a place of "unending education, of constant progress, and a youth that never ages".
