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 November 1961

On 24th November—the Darshan Day—the Mother distributed to people the following message of Sri Aurobindo, which was uplifting and encouraging.

24 November 1961

It is by a constant inner growth that one can find constant newness and unfailing interest in life. There is no other satisfying way.

The Mother showed me how to do the twenty second picture:

At the summons of her body's voiceless call
Her strong far-winging spirit travelled back,
Back to the yoke of ignorance and fate,
Back to the labour and stress of mortal days,
Lighting a pathway through strange symbol dreams
Across the ebbing of the seas of sleep. ||2.33||

In the afternoon she saw the painting and admired the detail of each scene which Savitri saw in her mind's eye.
