Debou's Correspondence with The Mother

9 April 1963

Debou, my dear child,

I had been waiting for a letter from you for several days. Your thought has been coming to me with a sort of anxiety, as if you wanted to take a decision and you were not sure which way to go. My answer was always the same: “Do not forget the true goal of your life and let nothing come between you and me.”

Now your letter has come to clarify everything.

S seems to be satisfied with the idea of taking you to Rameshwaram. So you will go there to reply to Panditji’s questions. That is the time when you must keep your consciousness concentrated on me and not allow yourself to be influenced by other mental constructions, however attractive they may be.

The light and knowledge that Sri Aurobindo has given us infinitely surpasses all that has been taught previously. This must never be forgotten; and if you cling to me, you will get the necessary force and consciousness to resist any suggestions, expressed or otherwise.

I will see you for a short while before you leave.

With all my tenderness and my blessings
