Amrita's Correspondence with The Mother

30 January 1933

Mother,

Do people come to you on their own or is it the influence of the stars that sends them here?

There is no question at all. It is one and the same, that is to say, it is neither the people who come to us, nor the stars that send them. There is one and same thing that organises the stars and makes the people move this way or that way.

I feel: “I am nobody, the stars are everything!”

I thought I had already explained to you that a person is born at a certain moment under certain astrological conditions because of what he is. It is quite wrong to believe that he is what he is because of the moment at which he is born. This last belief is the ignorant superstitious way of understanding the thing.
