The City the Earth Needs: A Posthuman Polis of Spiritual Anarchism * Debashish Banerjee This talk outlines the prescient vision of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother regarding the polis of the future that can manifest the aspirations of (post-)modernity. The Mother initiated an implementation of this vision in 1968 in Auroville.
