The true life ... it will come. The true life is something else, something that's yet to come. It is something else. The true life is Satprem. That's for later on. When it does come forward, then you will get a sense of the true life. It will come. And you mustn't be impatient - impatience leads to imitation: and unwittingly, in all sincerity, you imitate things within yourself, within your own experience, you imitate the realization - that's what impatience does. The true life in its SIMPLE purity cannot come until ... until the Lord Himself is doing and deciding everything, acting, realizing, living, having the experience. When everything is in His hands and you have absolutely nothing to do and don't even know WHERE YOU ARE, then ... then it comes in its purity, not before. This is the difference, the radical difference, since the experience [of April 13]: there is nothing but the Lord. All the rest ... what is it?... No more than a habit of speaking (not even a habit of thinking, that's all gone), a habit of speaking; so the less one speaks, the happier one is. Otherwise ... nothing. And what else could there be? It is He who sees, He who wills, He who acts. Then everything comes spontaneously, easily, with such great simplicity. It will come, mon petit - no impatience. For the moment it's on the right track. It's going well. page 254, Mother's Agenda , volume 3 , 11th July 1962.

Life is on the verge of becoming wonderful - but we don't know how to live it. We still have to learn. When we truly learn, it will be something. page 242 - Mother's Agenda , volume 5 , 14th Oct 1964
