Evidently the gods of the Puranas are a good deal worse than human beings, as we saw in that film the other day' (and that story was absolutely true). The gods of the Overmind are infinitely more egocentric - the only thing that counts for them is their power, the extent of their power. Man has in addition a psychic being, so consequently he has true love and compassion - wherein lies his superiority over the gods. It was very, very clearly expressed in this film, and it's very true. The gods are faultless, for they live according to their own nature, spontaneously and without constraint; it is their godly way. But if one looks at it from

I had the perception of this manifestation - a "pulsatory" manifestation, I might say - which opens out, shrivels up, opens out, shrivels up again ... and there comes a point when the opening out is such, the fluidity, the plasticity, the capacity for change are such that there is no need anymore to reabsorb in order to shape anew, and there will be a progressive transformation. Théon used to say (I think I've already told you about it) that this is the seventh universal creation, that there have been six pralayas[[Pralaya: the end of a world. ]] before and this is the seventh creation, but that it will be possible for this one to be transformed without being reabs

(After the work, Mother begins speaking of her translation of 'The Synthesis of Yoga'.) A few days ago I had an experience related to this. For some time I had been unable to work because I was unwell and my eyes were very tired. And two or three days ago, when I resumed the translation, I suddenly realized that I was seeing it quite differently! Something had happened during those days (how to put it?) ... the position of the translation work in relation to the text was different. My last sentence was all I had with me, because I file my papers as I go along, so I went back to it along with the corresponding English sentence. 'O

But then what is this consciousness we feel like a force inside us? For instance, sometimes in meditation it rises, then descends; it's not fixed anywhere. What is this consciousness? The Shakti! Some receive it from above; for others, it rises from below (gesture to the base of the spine). As I once told you, the old system always proceeds from below upwards, while Sri Aurobindo pulls from above downwards. This becomes very clear in meditation (well, in yoga, in yogic experience): for those who follow the old system, it's invariably the kundalini at the base [of the spine] rising from center to center, center to ce

X told me that in 6 months, he would come here to spend an entire month for the initiation and preparing for the initiation. He spoke to me of this in the street after having seen P, and in an enigmatic way he told me something along these lines: 'Yes, strong men are needed here. The Power is needed.' I did not clearly understand, for it was said with a lot of innuendo behind it. page 289 , Mother's Agenda , volume 1 , March 1959

The transition between the two appears really possible only through the entry - the conscious and willed entry - of a supramentalized consciousness into a body that we could call an "improved physical body," in other words, the human physical body as it is now, but improved: the improvement produced, for instance, by a TRUE physical training, not in its present exaggerated form but in its true sense. It's something I have seen fairly clearly: in an evolution (physical training is developing very fast nowadays, it's not even half a century since it started), in evolution, that physical training will bring an improvement, that is, a suppleness, a balan

-444_The Mother's answers.html (On that day, Mother gave the following answer to a question asked by one of the Ashram's associations:) What is the change the world is preparing for?How can one help it? A change of consciousness. When our consciousness changes, we will know what the change is. The change does not need our help in order to come, but we need to open up to the consciousness so that it may not come in vain for us. page 85 , Mother's Agenda , volume 11 , 21st Feb - 1970 Sri Aurobindo says that "the soul is naked and unashamed,"[[Aphorism 350 - "Only the soul that is na
