Experience Stillness at One of the World’s Most Profound Spiritual Spaces
Located in the heart of Auroville, the Matrimandir—meaning “Temple of The Mother”—is a striking symbol of inner reflection and spiritual awakening. Designed for practitioners of Integral Yoga, the Matrimandir is not affiliated with any religion. Rather, it is a universal space for silence, peace, and deep concentration, open to all who seek clarity and unity.

At its heart lies the Inner Chamber, a pristine white hall illuminated by a single ray of sunlight directed into the world’s largest optically-perfect crystal globe—a centerpiece meant to aid in inner concentration.
First-time visitors must pre-book and will be guided through a brief orientation explaining the vision of the Matrimandir and its spiritual intent. This is followed by a 15-minute silent concentration session inside the Inner Chamber—a rare and powerful experience of stillness.
