It's very amusing! (Mother laughs) It's the vital in full revolt against the mind, but it's magnificent! They reject the whole mind. It's interesting, very- interesting! You get the feeling that if they pushed a little farther on (gesture of piercing above), they would catch something. (François B.:) Mother, a few groups have pushed much farther on. This one [the Rolling Stones] is the most vital of all the groups. But there are others, more open, less rough. They are really ready to recognize you, but they don't know.It's clearly a complete rejection of all mental rules, and that's the first step needed to go beyond. There are two or three minutes when suddenly - hop! (gesture of piercing through) you feel it contacts something above. Is there something else? (F.B.:) A lot more!(Laughing) You can give me another piece or two! ("music") (Mother laughs, greatly amused) It strikes me as a band of children freed from any mental yoke! Very amusing. It's all right.(F.B.:) I'd like to have you hear something else, another kind. Butfrom the same generation. Something gentler.All right ... But it's very amusing! There is behind this a mental form that looks like the I-couldn't- care-less of the perpetual Smile! It's strange .... I mean, that which smiles at the whole life and all its forms, but as if seen and felt by children. These are more anxious! (F.B.:) Another piece, if you like?I think it'll do! (Mother laughs) (F.B.:) There's a group which sings something rather humorous,and at the end they say, "0 Mother, tell me more, tell me more ... ... It's fantastic! Because the inspiration is so pure, and they really ask, "0 Mother, tell me more ... ... (Mother laughs) And these are "Commercial" things, I mean they're there in thepublic .... Do you think the time has come to contact them? (Mother has not heard the question) It's an open door. They must step through the door and go into the future (gesture of piercing above), towards ... what has not yet manifested.(F.B.:) Can we help them?It opens a lot of doors. All habits, the whole past civilization is as if walled in by mental rules; this music (gesture of breaking through) sends them flying! It strikes me as a band of children crying for something-and the open door. They must step through it, they must go farther - there are now possibilities that weren't there before, and this [the pop music people] is precisely all that wants to open up so as to receive those possibilities. So a few in the front must be the first to go through and receive what's on the other side. There. It's good. page 132-33 , Mother's Agenda , volume 10 , 16th April - 1969 |
