Lakshmanan

Deeply Missed by Many

He was a true Auroville youth, born and educated in Auroville. Lakshmanan devoted more than 20 years of his life as a computer teacher at Transition school, where his gentle behaviour and support touched many young lives. Beyond his role as a computer teacher, Lakshmanan was helping and supporting the office team and last year, he had become one of the school’s executives. During his years at Transition School he simultaneously worked at Dehashakti as a sports teacher.

Apart from his work at school, he was also active in the Entry group, a member of the Farewell Team and of the Road Clean Up group. He left behind a legacy of kindness and dedication.

Lakshmanan was known for his generosity and willingness to lend a helping hand to anyone in need. His warm smile and gentle presence will be deeply missed by his family, colleagues, students and the community he served so faithfully.

His happiness was infectious, spreading warmth and comfort to everyone around him. Within his family, he stood as a pillar of strength, offering unwavering support and love through both good times and bad.

Lakshmanan’s body was cremated at the Auroville Burial and Cremation Grounds on July 13th.
