An account of Huta's sadhana & the grace showered on her by The Mother - especially how Mother prepared her for painting the series: 'Meditations on Savitri'.
The Mother : Contact On Savitri
This book tells the story of how Huta came to the Ashram and began her work with the Mother. It presents a detailed account of how the Mother prepared and encouraged her to learn painting and helped her to create two series of paintings: the 472 pictures comprising Meditations on Savitri and the 116 pictures that accompanied the Mother's comments titled About Savitri. During their meetings, where the Mother revealed her visions for each painting by drawing sketches and explaining which colours should be used, the unique importance of Savitri and the Mother's own experiences connected to the poem come clearly into view. The book is also a representation of Huta's sadhana, her struggles and her progress, and the solicitude and grace showered on her by the Mother.
THEME/S
It was 3rd April. The Mother visited her Stores which were renovated. I was working in the Stores. I kept them clean and looked after numerous big and small cupboards packed with various precious and priceless things offered by the Mother's devotees. Her eyes sparkled with pleasure when she saw many idols in one of the glass cupboards. She said with enthusiasm:
We shall have the Dolls and Idols exhibition on 24th November 1956. I want these idols to be exhibited in a Temple which will have a separate mom, so it will be quite by itself You will take charge of the Temple, decorate the idols and arrange them in it.
The Mother got me the necessary things to adorn the images.
One fine morning I sent an idol to the Mother to find out from her what the image represented. She replied:
The idol you sent is Mahalakshmi—you can give her a pale green sari with roses painted on it.
According to the Mother, Mahalakshmi signifies:
Mahalakshmi with all her Kindness and Beauty
She not only instructed me how to decorate the idols but also explained in detail their symbols and powers.
