The Mother - Past-Present-Future


A Dream-Vision of the Mother*

Outside Sri Aurobindo's room I was waiting for the Mother to come from the room in the eastern wing where she used to stand and receive people in the course of every morning. Some people were in that room. The Mother entered it, spoke with them and then turned and saw me.

Smiling, she put both her arms forward as if to draw me towards her. I went and held her hands and told her: "Mother, I am depressed because I've to see you only in my dreams-and that also not every night."

She then took me near Sri Aurobindo's room and said a little angrily: "Why can't you open your eyes and see me whenever you want to see? I am always there. Why should people think they can see me only in their dreams?"

I replied: "Mother, I am an ordinary person. Many a time I feel your presence just next to me, and I try to see you but I can't. How can I with my eyes open-unless you do something for me?"

She laughed and, tapping my left shoulder, said: "Have some patience."
