  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.

24 March 1971

During that time I wrote a letter to the Mother concerning the slides of the Savitri paintings.

24.3.1971

My dearest Mother,

Here is Richard's letter regarding the music and the slides.

We truly appreciate his feeling but here are two things which I wish to make clear.

  1. You have already heard Your organ-music and Your recitations and asked me to carry on with the final recording. So there is no need to change anything because Your music is only meant for the background music which is going to play throughout your recitations. The important thing is Your recitations. Arun and I are recording exactly according to them.

  2. In this letter of his, Richard wishes to insert photographs and the paintings of other artists along with Savitri paintings while projecting the Savitri slides. I feel that if he is allowed to do so, then the truth behind the Savitri paintings will be distorted and then it will become very cheap and meaningless. And Your Force and Power will not be there any more.

I pray to You to consider these two points and kindly answer to Richard if You please.

Love

Your child, Huta

She responded:

It is what we have arranged together that must be done—No intrusion of anything else.

Here is the Mother's answer to Richard Eggenberger's letter:

Concerning Savitri nothing of all this useless fancy must be done. I have said to Huta what must be done. It is that or nothing. I do not doubt the interest of your experience but do not mix it up with Savitri: give up or leave it separately.

The Mother stated in one of her writings:

All fancies are vital movements and most undesirable.

Liberty does not mean to follow one's desires but on the contrary to be free from them.
