ABOUT

The 'yoga of the cell' leads to 'true matter' and eventually the victory over death. A collective transformation sufficient to create a new species on earth is needed.

Mother’s Agenda 1967

This year, all the features of the yoga of the cells become clear: "A growing conviction that a perfection achieved in matter is a far more perfect perfection than any other. The consciousness expressed in transformed cells is a marvel: it legitimises all these ages of misery. Oh, what a fuss all those gods make." This year marks the discovery of "true matter".... without fuss: "In that cellular limpidity, there are no more problems: the solution precedes the problem. That is, things arrange themselves automatically." It's another mode of life on earth - "such a natural way of being" - in a body freed from its mental shackles and the laws of false matter: "The extraordinary impression of the unreality of suffering the unreality of illness.... It does not cure illness: it annuls it - it makes it unreal.... And then you see: as the functioning gradually grows perfect, it necessarily, inevitably means victory over death." And meanwhile, Surveyor is digging the ground of the moon with its mechanical arms, while our own secrets remain buried in a little cell: "We can travel anywhere, we know what's going on anywhere.... and we don't know what's going on inside ourselves." War is raging in Biafra, the Israeli troops are marching toward Suez, American planes are bombing Haiphong, China explodes its first thermonuclear bomb.... and so on. "A tremendous conflict over earth." At stake is a new earth, or a return to the old fiasco: "A local and momentary manifestation is not ruled out, but what is needed is a collective transformation sufficient to create a new species on earth.... This fact is certain." Will we understand where the real way out is, and the Marvel concealed in a human body?

December 27, 1967

(Mother studies an enlargement of the same photograph of the November 24 darshan, of which it was question in the conversation of November 29.)

I am beginning to think it's a type of "prototype of a way of being." A prototype, up above, of a way of being. I don't know, it's that and it's not that; I don't know how to explain.... It strikes me as a photograph of what could popularly be called a "mood"—a universal way of being.

It's very odd, at any rate.

(Laughing) We could call it a mother's way of looking at her progeny, or the Creator's way of looking at his creation!... Very odd. You see, we've always been given the image of a smug and self-satisfied God, who says, "Excellent." And here (laughing) it's ... "My! my!"

So there.

Page 413


Soon afterwards

There is a change.... You know ex-brother A. wrote about that priest who abused the Ashram in coarse language—the priest received the order to keep quiet and stop talking slanderously. And now it's general, no one says anything about the Ashram. Then you know that on the Pope's order, all the altars have been turned around; U. was asked to do it, he did it in all of Pondicherry's churches; so the archbishop wrote a note, saying, "Please thank the Mother because her children have done a very good work...." It means a change, you understand. It means they've received orders.

And I received such a nice note from this ex-brother A. (because he received a hamper for Christmas), but a lovely, charming little note, that is, something felt, in which he said that the "best of himself always makes itself felt in my presence." Really an inner change.

I have a strong feeling that they've received orders from higher up. It makes me feel a great change in the atmosphere.


(Regarding the violent agitation in South India against the imposition of Hindi, the language of the North, as the official language. This same agitation in 1965 had led to an attack against the Ashram during which disciples were injured and buildings burned down. At the time the governor had not intervened to stop the rioters from attacking the Ashram. It may be recalled that the majority of the disciples come from North India. In the last few days, trains, buses, post offices have been set on fire....)

Did you notice the police at the gate?... It's the minister (a minister who came here) who sent an order to the lieutenant governor to guard the Ashram.

(silence)

If there were a way (that's what I have been working on for some time), a way to make all this youth understand that to destroy isn't constructive—they can't give birth to anything whatsoever with this means. They want to change the state of things, it's understood—they may not see very clearly the direction in which we should go, but that things must change is agreed—but still, this method is downright stupid.... They've again thrown a bomb at that poor Indira! She

Page 414

was at a university, at Santiniketan where she had gone to deliver a speech for the prize distribution (or something of the sort), and they threw a bomb at her. But this time, she was unscathed.

You see, that was the method of the adverse forces to prove the creation was bad: they weren't satisfied with the creation and set about doing that—that's what they have been doing on a big scale. But it proves nothing! They have established death, established destruction and all forms of violence and hatred, anyway they have changed everything the wrong way round with the thought that, in that way, the world would become a superior world—which is idiotic.

And all these people now follow one another in single file, not even aware of what they're doing or why or how or anything!... They act in the name of freedom and in the name of progress, yes, free progress, because they want to impose an arbitrary law (Hindi) on them—the arbitrary law is silly, but what they are doing is even sillier.

Yes, but it is all the politicians that are responsible.

Oh, yes.

The students follow directives.

I have news from behind the scenes. I know some young people who are part of these movements of agitation, intelligent young people who don't want violence—but they want things to change. And there are all kinds of very interesting things: one of them (they are young people who live with their families, I know some from different places and different types), quite recently the father of one of them (from Calcutta or thereabouts), became worried (I know the father very well), he was worried; he called a friend of his, a high official in the police, and the friend questioned his son; then he told the father, "Your son is remarkable, highly intelligent, highly remarkable...." But that revealed something; that there are spies in the police, and those spies tell lies against people to get themselves noticed, so then lots of reports are falsified—I'd known that for a long time, but in this instance it became perfectly clear and obvious. For example, there had been reports that this boy had been involved in acts of violence—he's never had anything to do with that! The man who questioned him was entirely convinced of it because he's a boy who can't do such things, and he said, "I totally disapprove of that." But the police reports had said that he was involved. So, of course, this falsehood everywhere, mixed with everything, complicates things.

Page 415

It's perfectly obvious that the higher-ups are the ones responsible, because they're not genuine: they have neither the knowledge nor the vision nor the wisdom necessary to govern.... For example, Indira, it seems, was complaining; one of her friends (her close friends), who is a very good disciple of mine, told her one day when she was complaining (she said the people and the government were in a dreadful state), she told her, "But why don't you go and consult Mother? She will give you wisdom." Then Indira replied, "I dare not."1

You understand, all this confusion, all this disorder seems to be intended to prepare people for one thing, which, obviously, has not so far even been imagined as being possible—the recourse to a disinterested wisdom in order to govern. They're all caught up in "If I do this, these people will be against me; if I do that, those people ..."

(silence)

At the very bottom of the thing, two tendencies or two conceptions are confronting each other. The first says, "It's badly done: let's destroy it and we'll begin again," from top to bottom. The other says, "It's not the way it should be: let's transform it." These are the two things opposing each other: the effort for progress and transformation, or the brutal and stupid method of breaking everything and starting all over again, so that it goes on endlessly.

It boils down to the fight between Death and Life; progressive life, more and more divine, and Death, which systematically abolishes all that isn't divine. Because only what is divine escapes it.

But the process is ... endless.

The power of progressive transformation is what must be infused into Matter.
