Maude Smith's Correspondence with The Mother

3 March 1961

Gracious Divine Mother, Mother of Radiances,

Is it possible that in a former life I found You—found the Self, became a free soul? Is that what You meant when You said in an interview long ago that there is a contact with the psychic being which my mind refuses to acknowledge; and again that I have already surrendered and my heart is joyful and ecstatic? Might that also be why so much of this life has had to be lived before I could "remember"?

My dear child,

Yes, you are a conscious and living soul, come back upon earth to do the Divine Work.

With my love and blessings
