This volume comprises talks given by the Mother in 1954 to the members of her French class. Held on Wednesday evenings at the Ashram Playground, the class was composed of sadhaks of the Ashram and students of its school. The Mother usually began by reading out a passage from one of her essays or a French translation of one of Sri Aurobindo’s writings; she then commented on the passage or invited questions. During this year she discussed several of her essays on education and three small books by Sri Aurobindo: 'Elements of Yoga', 'The Mother', and 'Bases of Yoga'. She spoke only in French.

Note on the Text


These talks of 1954 were given by the Mother in French and appear here in translation. All of them were tape-recorded. The talks from January 2 to September 15 were first published in the original French with an English translation in the Bulletin of Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education from April 1973 to August 1978. In 1979 all the talks were brought out in English under the title Questions and Answers 1954, as Volume 6 of the Collected Works of the Mother (first edition). In that volume the Bulletin translations were slightly revised and the remaining talks translated for the first time. The present volume has the same text as the first edition of the Collected Works, apart from some minor revisions of the translation.
