Words of the Mother - II

The Mother symbol
The Mother

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.

Will

Will: power of consciousness turned towards effectuation.


A persevering will surmounts all obstacles.

One must have an unvarying will to acquire what one does not have in one's nature, to know what one does not yet know, to be able to do what one cannot yet do.

One must progress constantly in the light and the peace which come from the absence of personal desire.

If one has a strong will, he has only to orient it properly; if he has no will, he has first of all to build one for himself, which always takes long and is sometimes difficult.


Even the most beautiful thoughts will not make us progress unless we have a constant will for them to be expressed in us through nobler feelings, more exact sensations and better actions.


My lower nature continues to do the same stupid things. You alone can change it. What are Your conditions?

1) to be convinced that you can change.

2) to will to change without accepting the excuses of the lower nature.

3) to persist in the will in spite of every fall.

4) to have an unshakable faith in the help you receive.


AGNI

The true Agni always burns in deep peace; it is the fire of an all-conquering will.

Let it grow in you in perfect equanimity.


Agni: the flame of purification which must precede all contact with the invisible worlds.
