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.
My word to you is: Do not cherish suffering and suffering will leave you altogether. Suffering is far from being indispensable to progress. The greatest progress is made through a steady and cheerful equanimity.
10 May 1932
The world is full of sufferings and sorrows.

One should try never to be the cause of any additional suffering.
10 October 1970
The only remedy for all human suffering: divine love.
Turn towards the Divine, all your sufferings will disappear.
Do not take the sorrows of life for what they seem to be; they are in truth a way to greater achievements.
