Gautam Chawalla's Correspondence with The Mother

24 September 1966

It is said that Time is the great healer. It is true, isn’t it, because with the passing of time one forgets the cause of the injury? A question of memory.

It is not because one forgets that the saying is true, for then it would be meant for men who are completely ordinary and live in their surface consciousness. But what is true is that the whole world is in perpetual transformation; everything changes at every moment, and for those who aspire and are supple, time is the great remedy because with time they can cure all their ills and imperfections and transform themselves totally.

Sri Aurobindo has said: “Learn how to wait and you will put Time on your side.”
