The Great Adventure

“We are in a very special situation, extremely special, without precedent. We

are now witnessing the birth of a new world; it is very young, very weak -

not in its essence but in its outer manifestation - not yet recognised, not even

felt, denied by the majority. But it is here. It is here, making an effort to

grow, absolutely sure of the result. But the road to it is a completely new

road which has never before been traced out - nobody has gone there,

nobody has done that! It is a beginning, a universal beginning. So it is an

absolutely unexpected and unpredicatable adventure. There are people who

love adventure. It is these I call, and I tell them this: "I invite you to the great

adventure." It is not a question of repeating spiritually what others have

done before us, for our adventure begins beyond that. It is a question of a

new creation, entirely new, with all the unforeseen events, the risks, the

hazards it entails - a real adventure , whose goal is certain victory, but the

road to which is unknown and must be traced out step by step in the

unexplored. Something that has never been in this present universe and that

will never be again in the same way. If that interests you... well, let us

embark. What will happen to you tomorrow - I have no idea. One must put

aside all that has been foreseen, all that has been devised, all that has been

constructed, and then.. set off walking into the unknown. And - come what

may! There.” The Mother

Or either

“ The children should be helped to grow up into straightforward ,frank, upright and

honourable human beings ready to develop into Divine nature.”

DAY 02 - June 11

Morning event – Rediscovering Oneself ( group interactive session )

“ All life is only a lavish and manifold opportunity given us to discover, realize,

express the Divine”

Afternoon event – music and fine arts

“In the physical world, of all things it is beauty that expresses best the Divine. The

physical world is the world of form and the perfection of form is beauty. Beauty

interprets, expresses, manifests the Eternal”

Evening event – The extent of The Grace

The need for The Grace

Speakers –

DAY 03 - June 12

Morning event – Ascend To Truth ( group interactive session )

The discovery and growth of one’s inner being is not a mere figment of imagination

but the consistent expression of psychic truth, of a direct experience ‘that passes all

the argument of the earth.’ Only a rare few have hit upon this adventure; they are the

pioneers of the spirit’s ways

Afternoon event – Local art and culture

“All Indian art is a throwing out of a certain profound self-vision formed by

a going within to find out the secret significance of form and appearance, a

discovery of the subject in one's deeper self, the giving of soul-form to that

vision and a remoulding of the material and natural shape to express the

psychic truth of it with the greatest possible purity and power of outline and

the greatest possible concentrated rhythmic unity of significance in all the

parts of an indivisible artistic whole.”

Evening event – The Psychic and The Truth

Speakers –

DAY 04 - June 13

Morning event – Role of an Ideal Child in today’s world

( trekking and excursion)

“To do something for the Lord is to give Him something of what one has, or of what

one does, or of what one is. That is to say, to offer to Him one part of our goods or all

of our possessions, to consecrate to Him one part of our work or all our activities, or

to give ourselves to Him totally and without reserve so that He may take possession of

our nature in order to transform and divinise it....”

-17 August 1960

Afternoon event – open up with the nature

“Perhaps the beauty of flowers too is a means used by Nature to awaken in human beings

the attraction for the psychic. ”

Evening event – Success and Failure

A perfect Euality

Speakers –

Camp Fire

Gratitude to The Divine Mother : All we owe to Thee.

RIVERO YOUTH CARNIVAL 2010, JUNE 10- 14

The camp will be inaugurated by a cross country 4 km run with “ flame of aspiration “ and

the flame will be installed at Matrupuri. The camp will be for 4 nights and 5 days.

Only the participants and organisers will run and carry the “flame of aspiration” wearing the

t-shirt which will be given to them with spiritual logo.

The campers should bring with them white shorts, white half shirt and white converse.

The campers should be mentally prepared to face hardships and be ready to take up

challenges, although every attempt will be made to extend the maximum possible amenities

.

The themes of the camp will be “rediscovering oneself” , “ascend to truth “ and “the ideal

child. “ all the participants will partake with discussions and at the end , the whole

discussion will be synthesized in the light of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo.

The youth are the messengers of strength and vitality. Let us unite for the sake of The

Mother and Sri Aurobindo and let us wake up and become a little more conscious inwardly .

The objective of the camp will be to re-orient the teenagers and help them grow physically

stronger , vitally more refined, mentally aware of themselves and spiritually open to the

grace of The Mother and Sri Aurobindo.

The camp shall be organized by the campers themselves with external ( financial support

from well wishers) the elderly so-called organisers will supervise the minute to minute

conduct of the camp and will eventually suggest the loop-holes which shall be noticed for

future rectifications.

All steps will be taken to re-conduct the camp every year in different remote locations or

may be in Risida itself.

We have plunged unknowingly. What is going to happen to-morrow, but by the grace of The

Mother we are sure to grow in number over a short period. “with certitude we shall march”

Victoire a la Douce Mere, Vande Mataram.

MATRUPURI

Matrupuri, the Abode of The Mother, a multi-purpose organisation is the brain –child of Sri Madhusudan Mishra, who lives now in Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry. It was established in the foot hill of Bhaludunguri ( means a hill of bears) in a picturesque surrounding in May 1968 with the blessings of The Mother. The Mother has approved all the projects of this organization. A symbolic Samadhi of Sri Aurobindo was erected at the top of the Bhaludunguri. Regular mela (fair) was organized regularly since then. But the paucity of fund hindered the flourish of petals. However, the organization has tried a lot to grow. An Integral Education Center has been established. The future plan is to establish the Institute of Sri Aurobindo’s Higher Education & Research. There is a plan to install Sri Aurobindo’s Sacred Relics as soon as possible. The Plan of the Matrimandir has been approved by The Mother. The future of the Matrupuri lies in the Grace of the Divine Mother.

REDISCOVERING ONESELF

The youth of today is capable of doing many impossible things in an undreamt way. Especially the youths who are conversant with the ideology of Mother and Sri Aurobindo are always adventurous, courageous, never feel to be defeated.

After all life is an opportunity given to us, to express the Divine and manifest the beauty.

WHEN THE YOUTHS FROM ALL OVER INDIA WOULD LIKE TO MEET IN A PLACE, Risida (Kalahandi dist, odisha) AND UNDOUBTEDLY BRING ABOUT NEWER WAYS AND NEWER METHODS IN REDISCOVERING OURSELVES. ODDS WILL BE AGAINST US BUT WE SHALL MARCH ON.

WE WILL BE THE CAPTAIN OF OUR OWN SOULS, WE WILL SAIL AGAINST ALL WINDS, WE WILL FATHOM THE DEPTHS OF OUR OCEAN OF IGNORANCE.

O! DIVINE TRUTH. COME! GUIDE US. REVEAL YOURSELF. FOR THE BETTERMENT OF THE ENTIRE WORLD. LET US BE YOUR TRUE AND SINCERE INSTRUMENTS, O! MOTHER, SWEET MOTHER, OUR BELOVED MOTHER.
