My Savitri work with the Mother

  The Mother : Contact   On Savitri

Huta

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.

Dear little child of mine

You like to read Savitri to me and to say your feelings about it—this is quite all right—and I like your understanding of Savitri, which is also all right. So, everything is all right and you can be sure of my friendship.

LOVE

Really I marvelled at her humility. It was my conviction that she was omniscient and omnipotent—and yet she asked for my ideas and suggestions in order to encourage me in my work and in reaching my goal. Not only did she ask but also accepted my ideas and suggestions. I have no words to describe her magnanimity.


I painted the Mother's eyes from a photograph depicting her eyes. She liked the painting very much and asked me to include it in Savitri Book Ten—The Book of the Double Twilight: picture thirteen. These verses correspond to it:

And Savitri looked on Death and answered not.... ||147.1||
A mighty transformation came over her... ||147.3||
A curve of the calm hauteur of far heaven
Descending into earth's humility
Her foreheads span vaulted the Omniscient 's gaze,
Her eyes were two stars watching the universe. ||147.7||
