Tribute to Mary Helen – Mangesh Nadkarni

 

Dear Richard,

 

                  The March issue of Auroville Today came into my hand only this morning.  We were very touched to read your Tribute to Mary Helen.  We knew she was fighting the battle for the body's great future, but we are sad to learn that she is no more.  To have lived a life as beautifully as she did and to lay down her body as one of Mother's flaming warriors – that is achievement enough for one yogic life.  We did not know her personally as well as we have known you, and yet to have known someone like her even second hand (through you) is a blessing we cherish deeply.  May the dear departed rest in peace until the Mother calls her again to take up Her work on earth!
