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.
Openness is the will to receive and to utilise for progress the force and influence; the constant aspiration to remain in touch with the Consciousness; the faith that the force and consciousness are always with you, around you, inside you and that you have only to let nothing stand in the way of your receiving them.
Opening is a release of the consciousness by which it begins to admit into itself the workings of the Divine Light and Power.
Open to the consciousness which is working on and in you and keep always as quiet and peaceful as you can.
I pray that I may serve you consciously and sincerely, without the least encroachment or hampering by the ego, and be inspired by you in everything.
Open yourself more and more to the Consciousness and you will receive inspiration.

"To open more to love and to the light." This is exactly the answer I send to your last letter. Rise higher in the consciousness, love more widely, open to the light—and all divergences will disappear. You must be as vast and comprehensive as the world to do the Yoga.
