In memoriam - Saraswati Helene Champaloux

Saraswati Helene Champaloux, an early Aurovilian, passed away on February 5th 2022 in France after a long struggle with cancer. She was 75 years old.

Saraswati received her name from Champaklal in 1991 and joined Auroville two years later. During her time in Auroville, Saraswati researched the several levels of the energetic patterns that surround living beings and earth and she developed a deep emphatic connection with the world. She was working in connection with the Angelic Entities and she was painting them in Auroville when they allowed her to reproduce their energetic pattern. She had an Angel’s theme exhibition in September 2000 at Pitanga art gallery in Auroville. These art works were deeply inspiring and with a wonderful presence. Apart from being an artist, she worked as an assistant to Dr Kamala Tiwari at the Health Center, at the Matrimandir, and at CSR with Aurosatprem. The funeral of Saraswati’s remains took place in France on 16 February. Her Auroville friends bade her farewell during a silent gathering at the Matrimandir Banyan tree.
