But these people just can't get out of their education! Here is a lady [A. Bailey], quite renowned, it seems (she's dead now), who became the disciple of a Tibetan lama ... and she still speaks of Christ as the sole Avatar! She just can't get out of it! And each one has the absolute Truth! page 181 , Mother's Agenda , volume - 2 - 25th April - 1961 The first thing I did this morning was to open this book by Alice Bailey (I've had it for several days, I had to have a look at it). So I looked ... Ah, I said - well, well! Here's a person who's dead now, but she was the disciple of a Tibetan Buddhist lama and c

/Sweet Mother, / /Why do we celebrate Christmas here? What special meaning does this day have for us? And why is a distinction made here between Europeans and Indians on Christmas Day? / *Long before the Christian religion made December 25th the day of Christ’s birth, this day was the festival of the return of the sun, the Day of Light.* It is this very ancient symbol of the rebirth of the Light that we wish to celebrate here. *As far as I know, everyone in the Ashram is allowed to come to the Christmas tree and the distribution. * The custom of sending special baskets to the Europeans and Americans comes from the

Yes, it's the physical mind. The japa is made precisely to control the physical mind. page 433 , Mother's Agenda , volume - 1, 11th Oct. 1960 I'm going to tell you what I saw - it's very interesting. First, emanating from here (Mother indicates the chest), a florescence of every color like a peacock's tail spread wide; but it was made of light, and it was very, very delicate, very fine, like this (gesture). Then it rose up and formed what truly seemed like a luminous peacock, up above, and it remained like that. Then, from here (the chest), what looked like a sword of white light climbed straight up. It went up very high and formed a kind

Now I know, I remember, this whole experience came after I saw a book that was published quite recently in India, in English, which they entitled The Roll of Honour, and in which there is a photo and a short biography of all those who died in the fight against the British, for India's freedom. There were photos everywhere, lots of them (some were only photos the police took after they had just been killed and were lying on the ground). And it all brought a certain atmosphere: the atmosphere of those disinterested goodwilled people who meet with a tragic fate. It had the same impression on me as the horrors of the Germans during the war over there. These thin

I am inundated by a horde of mental questions ... flat, superficial - everybody asks me questions in order to publish my answers! So I refuse. K.G. sent me five or six questions for his journal, each one more stupidly mental than the other, in connection with the supermind. I am asked to say whether it's "this way" or whether it's "that way" - the kind of questions you ask a good pupil to see if he has learned his lesson well! page 103 , Mother's Agenda, volume 4 , 27th March 1963

L'Agenda de Mère - vol 13 – 1972-73 (On January 18, Mother received the Dalai Lama. It should be noted that Mother had long ago admitted a number of Tibetan refugees to the Ashram and Auroville.) Anything to say? I'd be curious to know what you felt with the Dalai Lama? A truly benevolent man. Buddhist benevolence, you know, and he practices it marvelously. He seems to have no ... no selfishness in him (there's no word for it in French). I mean, a constant concern to do the right thing. (silence) Very active [mentally] - there wasn't much of a deeper contact. That's all. He was happy with his visit, I was told. Did you hear that too? Yes, I heard

(Nolini comes in to read Mother his English translation of "Notes on the Way" for the next Bulletin.) I have been wondering about this: maybe if I didn't listen I'd hear quite clearly! (Nolini stares at Mother with a certain bewilderment.) No, I said just before that when I want to see clearly, precisely, I close my eyes and see quite clearly. I do it spontaneously (I noticed it because Satprem asked me what was going on). And since I can't hear, maybe if I didn't listen and went within myself, like that, I would hear? - There must be a trick! (Satprem:) It depends on the consciousness with which onereads to you.
