The Mother's brief written statements on various aspects of spiritual life including some spoken comments.
This volume consists primarily of brief written statements by the Mother on various aspects of spiritual life. Written between the late 1920s and the early 1970s, the statements have been compiled from her public messages, private notes, and correspondence with disciples. About two-thirds of them were written in English; the rest were written in French and appear here in English translation. The volume also contains a small number of spoken comments, most of them in English. Some are tape-recorded messages; others are reports by disciples that were later approved by the Mother for publication.
What is liberty?
Liberty is to depend only on the Divine.
28 March 1932
If you have a strong and conscious will and your will is centred around the psychic then you can have a taste of liberty, otherwise you are the slave of all the outside influences.
24 August 1955
Freedom does not come from outer circumstances but from inner liberation.
Find your soul, unite with it, let it govern your life and you will be free.
Blessings.
31 August 1966
Freedom is to do only what the Supreme Consciousness makes us do.
In every other case one is a slave, whether of the will of others, or of conventions, or of moral laws, or of vital impulses, or of mental fancies, or, above all, of the desires of the EGO.
21 September 1969
Freedom is far from meaning disorder and confusion. It is the inner liberty that we must have, and if you have it nobody can take it away from you.

The only true liberty is that obtained by union with the Divine.
One can unite with the Divine only when the ego is mastered.
