Meditation in Auroville

Concentration in the Inner Chamber

The inside of the Matrimandir is not open as a sight. It is a room for individual, silent concentration: one person with themselves, under a single beam of sunlight held on a crystal. Group bookings are not accepted at all, and you cannot book on someone else's behalf except for a partner, parent or child.

Mornings only; reporting at the Visitors Centre by 08:15. Booking opens five working days ahead, in a window from 07:00 to 12:00 IST, every day except Tuesday. Same-day booking does not exist.
