Killing

1950-06-22

When Mother came to Sri Aurobindo's room today it was 9.54 a.m. As soon as she came she sat on his cot on one side. She looked extremely tired. Looking at me, she asked: “How long?”

I understood what she meant and replied: “Two hours and ten minutes.” She had to stand while she received people from 7.25 to 23. 9.35 a.m.

Mother then looked at Sri Aurobindo and said just one word, but with full expression: “Killing.”

It was painful to hear that. Can you imagine it?

Sri Aurobindo became very serious.
