PHYSICAL
NEARNESS
Whether I see you or not makes no
difference to the help. It will always be there.
You must remove two falsehoods from your
mind.
1) What you get from me has nothing at all
to do with what the others have or have not. My relation with you depends on
you alone; I give you according to your true need and capacity. Even here,
already you were alone with me; if there were no others you would receive
nothing more.
2) It is a great mistake to think that
physical nearness is the one thing indispensable for the progress. It will do
nothing for you if you do not establish the inner contact, for without that you
could remain from morning to night with

Comfort
and Happiness
Each one carries his capacity of happiness
in himself but I am convinced that those who cannot be happy here can be happy
nowhere.
14 April 1936

People must be happy when they are here,
otherwise they cannot have the full advantage of the exceptional opportunity.
I am always happy to receive and to help
those who wish for harmony and conciliation, and are ready to correct their
mistakes and to progress. But I can be of no help to those who throw all the
blame on the others for they are inapt to see the truth and to act accordingly.
But it goes without saying that those who
are here and are ready to face some difficulties in ord

That was the first idea: there was the
Centre and the town was organised around it. Now they are doing the very
opposite! They want to build the town and put the Centre in afterwards.
And the “thing” is ready to come! I have
known it for a long time, it is there (gesture
upward), it is waiting.
(Silence)
A's idea is an island at the centre, with
water around it, running water, which will provide the whole water supply for
the city; and when it has passed through the city, it will be sent to a
pump-house, and from there it will go out to irrigate all the surrounding
cultivated lands. So this Centre is lik

Work and Teaching
Sri Aurobindo's work is a unique
earth-transformation.
Sri Aurobindo incarnated in a human body
the supramental consciousness and has not only revealed to us the nature of the
path to follow and the method of following it so as to arrive at the goal, but
has also by his own personal realisation given us the example; he has provided
us with the proof that the thing can be done and the time is now to do it.
Never for an instant vacillate in the
belief that the mighty work of change taken up by Sri Aurobindo is going to
culminate in success. For that indeed is a fact: there is not a shadow of doubt
as to the issue of the work we have in hand... The

Sri Aurobindo
and the Mother
(Mother designated the red lotus as the flower of Sri
Aurobindo and the white lotus as her own.)
Red – lotus symbol of the manifestation of
the Supreme upon earth.
White lotus – symbol of the Divine
Consciousness.

Without him, I exist not;

When in your heart and thought you will
make no difference between Sri Aurobindo and me, when
to think of Sri Aurobindo will be to think of me and
to think of me will mean to think of Sri Aurobindo
inevitably, when to see one will mean inevitab

Centenary
(Message for
broadcast by All India Radio, Pondi-
cherry)
Today is the first day of Sri Aurobindo's
centenary year. Though he has left his body he is still with us, alive and
active.
Sri Aurobindo belongs to the future; he is
the messenger of the future. He still shows us the way to follow in order to
hasten the realisation of a glorious future fashioned by the Divine Will.
All those who want to collaborate for the progress of humanity and for
India's luminous destiny must unite in a clairvoyant aspiration and in an
illumined work.

Proper
Conduct
I know that people are fussy and
unreasonable. But unless their consciousness changes, what else can we expect
from them?
People are here to change their
consciousness. Unless they become, all of
them, true to their aim, nothing true
can be done.
It is evident that those who want to live
here must change not so much their way of living as their way of being.
We are striving towards a consciousness
more deep, more total and more true; because our raison d'être is to
manifest this consciousness.
What is the use of being a sadhak if, as
soon as we act, we act like the ignorant ordinary man?
We are expected to give to the world an
example

SOCIAL REGULATION
(Someone asked about proper arrangements for the
birth of an Auroville child. Mother advised that only
the doctor and the father should be present, and
added:)
The most important thing is to be quiet,
in a peaceful atmosphere so that the Force can work without disturbance.

amusing because I consider the thing childish.
You know in Auroville
there will be no marriages. If a man and a woman love each other and want to
live together they may do so wi
