Yes, in Orissa, for example. A large part of Orissa is entirely under Sri Aurobindo's influence, 7 Avril , 1971, vol - 12, L'Agenda de Mère I've just come from there [the music room where Mother receives visitors]. I saw some twenty people.... There was Orissa's Chief Minister (Orissa is the first province in India to give money for a pavilion in Auroville: they gave a lakh of rupees). He is a nice man. The people from Orissa, they are nice people; of all provinces, they are the ones who seem the most eager to forge ahead, to change something. And Bengal? Isn't it ahead? They're a bit ... fanciful. I mean, th

Then I looked, wondering, "And what was Christ's path?"... Basically, he always said, "Love thy neighbor," in other words brotherhood (but that's a modern translation). For him, the idea was compassion, charity (the Christians say it's the "law of Love," but we're not yet there - that will come much later). So I wrote: Jesus preached Compassion.... page 100 , Mother's Agenda , volume 4 , 27th March 1963

-435_The Mother's sutras.html THE MOTHER'S SUTRAS 1) Be ambitious for nothing, above all pretend nothing, but be at each instant the utmost of what you can be.² 2) As for your place in the universal manifestation, only the Supreme can assign it to you. 3) It is the Supreme Lord who has ineluctably decreed the place you occupy in the universal concert, but whatever be this place, you have equally the same right as all others to ascend the supreme summits right to the supramental realization. 4) What you are in the truth of your being is decreed in an irrevocable way, and nothing nor anyone can stop you from being it; but the path you take to get there is left t

A member of UNESCO has asked a stupid question, something to this effect: "There was a time when India represented the spiritual consciousness" (or "taught the spiritual consciousness," I don't remember now), "but now that she is engaged in such a war, who will play this role?"...[[Here is the exact text of the question: "If India, who held (till recently) the hope for humanity in the light of her spiritual leaders, can get involved in such a war, who would lead the world?" ]] So instead of replying to the question, because I might have told him a thing or two, I answered what you've just read. page 245 - Mother's Agenda , volume 6, 16th Sept

-261_Mother's Agenda.html L'Agenda de Mère - vol 3 , 1962 March 13, 1962 You're in a bad mood; oh yes, I could see it from far away. (Satprem voices various complaints, then adds.) And then to top it off, the other day you tell me this Agenda isn't interesting either, that it's not worth keeping. So what am I doing here? What? What's not worth keeping? Your Agenda. My Agenda? But I treasure it! Oh, you said it didn't interest you.... Me? I said that! Page 121 Yes. You sure did! Then I was lying. No, obviously not. But you said it didn't interest you and it should be filed away in a corner or I don't know what. So what am I doing here? You surely misunderstood me. I sa

Chittagong was hit by a cyclone, there were tidal waves somewhere else ... The cyclone went up the wrong side! - for according to X's predictions, it was Karachi that should have disappeared. He said only in 1962 or 1963 would Karachi totally disappear.And three-fourths of Bombay underwater! page 472 , Mother's Agenda , volume 1 , 12th Nov. - 1960

... I saw S.G. this morning, the person who went to America, who knew Kennedy and even spoke to him about the possibility of openly joining with Russia so as to exert pressure on the world and prevent armed disputes (he said, "to settle all border and territorial disputes in a peaceful way," beginning, of course, with China and India). Kennedy had been enthusiastic. The Russian ambassador had been summoned at once, and he had telephoned Khrushchev: enthusiastic over the idea (but this Khrushchev seems to be rather a good man). They were supposed to sort it out during a meeting at the U.N. At this point, Kennedy makes off....[[Kennedy was assassinated on Nov

7.9.59 Kalki This handwritten note bore only this word and the date. Kalki is the name of the last Avatar who comes on a white winged horse to destroy the 'barbarians' (yavan) at the end of the Iron Age or the Kali Yuga, which is the period we are now passing through. His appearance marks the return of the Age of Truth, or the Satya Yuga. page 323 - Mother's Agenda , volume -1 , 9th July 1959

I am not saying anything officially; because I have said and always repeat that politics is in complete Falsehood, based on Falsehood, and I am not dealing with it, meaning that I am not in politics, I don't want to be - but that doesn't stop me from seeing clearly! ... People have come and asked me (from every side, by the way) for my opinion, view or advice; I said, "No, I don't deal in politics." You see, all diplomacy is absolutely based on a DELIBERATE Falsehood. As long as it is like that, there's no hope: the inspirations will always come from the wrong side; inspirations, impulsions, ideas, everything will always come from the wrong side - which means the inescapab
