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.

28 February 1967

It was a Tuesday, the morning of the 28th. That day the Mother saw all the books of Sri Aurobindo's poems. She was happy to learn that now I was eager to do the paintings of these poems. I prayed to her for her help. She said:

Yes, but you must write each poem in big letters with a felt-pen so that I can read easily. You see, I can't read typescript because my eyes are getting bad.

I answered her:

Mother, I will do exactly what you want.

Still I was writing in big letters the selected passages of Savitri for her to recite on the recorder. This work was going on steadily.

Now I had to write the selected poems in big letters.

I wanted more work in order to forget myself
