When I went to get D this evening, she told me that she was in the grip of some difficulties, as if this mantra had provoked a backlash. X immediately did some little operation, and she left all smiling. page 299 , Mother's Agenda , volume 1 , 7th May - 1959 D. asked me if changing the time of her japa had much importance. I told her she can change the time if she has to, provided she remains sincere - that's the most important thing. page 219 - Mother's Agenda , volume 2 , 2nd June , 1961

I remember another thing, but then much more recent. After he left, long ago, years and years ago (it was not very long after he left, maybe a year or two), I was downstairs, in the bathroom downstairs, and in that bathroom, early in the morning I was taking my breakfast on the corner of a table, like that. Then, while I was beginning to eat, he came and stood there (gesture beside Mother), and he was so concrete that I felt as if ... it would take VERY LITTLE for him to become material again. So I said to him, "Oh, you are coming back!" Like that. And then ... he answered me, "I'll be with you, but I can't come back materially - I MUST

K left his body. The operation had been extraordinarily, almost miraculously successful - one of those dreadful operations where they extract part of your body. He was quite all right for four days afterwards, then everything went wrong. During the operation and just afterwards, I had simply put the Force on him, as I always do in such cases, so that everything would turn out for the best. Then a few days ago, during my japa, a kind of order came - a very clear order - to concentrate on him so that he would be conscious of his soul and able to leave under the best conditions. And I saw that the concentration worked wonderfully: it seems that during his

There is a boat being built (the symbol of the yoga, obviously), it's made entirely of pink clay, and what a pink! ... A boat of pink clay. I was there with Sri Aurobindo - a very agile Sri Aurobindo who was going about supervising the construction; I too was going up and down with extreme ease. Clay. There were some workmen, in particular a young man who was extraordinary - I don't think they are purely human beings. But it's a long story.... But clay, that was something really new - and lovely! Pink. Pink, a warm, golden pink. They were cutting out [of the clay] rooms, stairways, ship decks and funnels, captains' cabin

FIRST SUPRAMENTAL MANIFESTATION (During the common meditationon on Wednesday the 29th February 1956) This evening the Divine Presence, concrete and material, was there present amongst you. I had a form of living gold, bigger than the universe, and I was facing a huge and massive golden door which separated the world from the Divine. As I looked at the door, I knew and willed, in a single movement of consciousness, that THE TIME HAS COME', and lifting with both hands a mighty golden hammer I struck one blow, one single blow2 on the door and the door was shattered to pieces.

The French language is very literary and mental, isn't it? Yes, it's very rigid. Rigid, yes. They're beginning to wonder what Auroville's language will be. I think it will be a language that will ... (Laughing) The children are setting the example: they know several languages and make sentences with words from every language, and ... it's quite colorful! It's like the Americans. Their language ... the English say that have totally spoilt the language, but the Americans say that the way they speak has more life. That's how it is. People who speak Esperanto wrote me an official letter

It's at the lake. The property belonged to the mission and at that time its manager was a very good friend of ours, even though he was a missionary. He said that he would arrange for us to have it. Everything was arranged, and I was to receive the money to buy it (they asked for more than fifty or sixty thousand rupees#). But then the money didn't come and our missionary friend left. He's no longer there; he's been replaced by someone else. (Mother looks at a piece of paper) 'Calling Antonin Raymond3.' The architect for the construction. Then there was also 'making ready temporary quarters for Z4.' But then Z left; he died.

Albano, Regina Apostolorum, 13 January 1972 To His Excellency Msgr. A.R. Archbishop of Pondicherry Venerable Lord, As Your Excellency knows, I have directed the Holy Congre gation for the Eastern Church for nearly twenty-five years, and one of my most cherished memories is the journey I made to your beloved country in 1953. I have always held a keen interest in your great nation, but even more so after I visited it. It was thus with a very special pleasure that I accompanied His Holiness Pope Paul VI to the International Eucharistic Con gress in Bombay.
