Parichand's Correspondence with The Mother

9 April 1947

Mother divine,

Month after month, year after year pass away, yet no decisive opening is made in my being, no definite change in my consciousness. Sometimes my heart shudders at the thought that there is something wrong in my attitude, that there are certain perverse habits in my nature which oppose a sweet, devotional, childlike psychic relation with You.

Today I feel a strong urge to approach Thee, 0 Mother, for enlightening me on the real nature of the opposition and showing me a rapid way out of this tangle.

The smallest change in the nature, especially in the physical, needs a very long time to be realised—so the first condition is to be very patient.

My love and blessings
