Auroville, Feb 25 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday visited  Auroville and said India has been the spiritual destination for the world for age.

He was addressing at the Golden Jubilee celebrations of Auroville International Township.

"As the world progresses materially through science and technology, it will increasingly long for and need spiritual orientation for social order and stability. At Auroville, the material and the spiritual, co-exist in harmony," Modi said.

He said Maharishi Aurobindo’s philosophy of Consciousness integrates not just humans, but the entire universe.

"Auroville has brought together men and women, young and old, cutting across boundaries and identities. I understand that Auroville’s Charter was hand-written in French by the Divine Mother herself. According to the Charter, the Mother set five high principles for Auroville," he said.
