To a sadhak of the
Sri Aurobindo Ashram.
How can my effort
to serve the Divine become more
perfect?
By wanting Him
more and more in every part of your being – integrally.

In 1958 the Mother
said, “If things go on advancing at
this speed, it seems more than possible,
almost evident,
that what Sri Aurobindo wrote in a letter is a prophetic
announcement: The supramental
consciousness will
enter a
phase of realising power in 1967.”¹
Have things
advanced at the required speed?
Yes.

To a sadhak of the
Sri Aurobindo Ashram
We are at a moment
of transition in the history of the earth. It is merely a moment in eternal
time, but this moment is long compared to human life. Matter is changing in
order to prepare itself for the new manifestation, but the human body is not
plastic enough and offers resistance; this is why the number of incomprehensible
disorders and even diseases is increasing and becoming a problem for medical
science.
The remedy lies in
union with the divine forces that are at work and a receptivity full of trust
and peace which makes the task easier.

To a young
captain in the Sri Aurobindo Ashram
Department
of Physical Education. He began writing
to the
Mother at the age of nineteen.
Sweet Mother,
On the
night of Friday the 8th, I had a very peculiar
dream. As I
could not tell it to You at the Playground, I
am going
to tell You now.
It was
a very fine day very special. There was an
important
meeting at the Playground, so I was hurry-
ing there. But
near the Playground in front of Standard
Stores,
the road was covered with innumerable snakes. I
was
taken aback and r

To a young
teacher in the Sri Aurobindo International
Centre of
Education.
Sweet Mother,
With what
attitude should I read Sri Aurobindo's
books when they are difficult and when I
don't under-
stand? Savitri, The Life Divine, for example.
Read a little at
a time, read again and again until you have understood.
Sri Aurobindo
says: “Yoga is nothing but practical psy-
chology.”¹
What does this sentence mean? The whole
paragraph is
not clear to me.
Because you know
nothing about psychology. Study psychology and you will understand what he
means.
Sri Aurobindo

To a student in
the Sri Aurobindo International Centre
of Education who began writing to the Mother at the
age
of sixteen.
Sweet Mother,
Should one
give money to beggars or not?
In a
well-organized society, there should not be any beggars.
But as long as
there are, do as you feel.
There are good
reasons both for doing it and for not doing it.
Blessings

There is no one
for whom it is impossible to realise the Divine. Only, for some it will take
many, many lives, whereas there are others who will do it in this very lifetime.
It is a question of wi
