The Mother's brief statements on various aspects of spiritual life including some conversations.
Part One consists primarily of brief written statements by the Mother on various aspects of spiritual life. Written between the early 1930s 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. There are also 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. These reports are identified by the symbol § placed at the end. Part Two consists of thirty-two conversations not included elsewhere in the Collected Works. The first six conversations are the earliest recorded conversations of the 1950s' period. About three-fourths of these conversations were spoken in French and appear here in English translation.
It is He, the perfect spirit who fills all.
The perfect spirit fills all.
It is He who fills all.
Who is He? The perfect spirit.

It is the Lord who sets all in motion from the depths of the being; it is His will that directs, His force that acts.

At the service of the Divine we are; it is the Divine who decides, ordains and puts in motion, directs and accomplishes the action.

Who has made the Divine?
Himself.

How long did it take to plan the universe? Who was there to execute it?

Nothing in advance. Everything immediately, directly, spontaneously, without any intermediary. The intervention of intermediaries has mostly complicated matters rather than simplified. A rather long story to tell.
What is Consciousness?
When the Lord becomes conscious of Himself, the world is created.
Consciousness is the breath that gives life to all.
Sweet Mother, please tell me the meaning of "consciousness".
Without consciousness you would not even know that you live.
Consciousness is the faculty of becoming aware of anything through identification.
The Divine Consciousness is not only aware but knows and effects. To become aware of a vibration, for instance, does not mean that you know everything about it.
In the Divine Consciousness the smallest things from below unite with the highest, the most sublime from above.

Does the Divine exist in all things, even in the dustbin?
The whole universe is the manifestation of the Divine, but a manifestation which begins with a total unconsciousness of its origin and rises little by little towards this consciousness.
Do not forget even for a moment that all this has been created by Him out of Himself. Not only is He present in everything, but also He is everything. The differences are only in expression and manifestation.
If you forget this you lose everything.1
There is no end to the wonders of the universe.
The more we get free from the limits of our small ego, the more these wonders disclose themselves to us.
The Lord will possess His universe perfectly only when the universe will have become the Lord.
