Prithwi Singh's Correspondence with The Mother

Undated (1947?)

Ma douce Mère,

It is with great regret that I have to discontinue terrace darshan. As it is becoming terribly late for you in spite of the notice and as the Library now opens at 12, I have to go earlier to the dining room or not work at that time. Therefore poor Prithwi Singh has to make his exit except for a rare glimpse of you now and then by the vagaries of some happy chance. At this rate perhaps the Supermind, by the impact of its descending Force, will at no distant date throw me completely out into Nirvana or some impersonal Void or lull me into a somnolent sleep of self-oblivion. However, till that fate overtakes me, I prostrate myself at the sweet Feet of my beloved Mother and offer my pranams, however platonically it may be.

My dear child,

It seems to me that you have a very pessimistic view of things and especially of the working of the Supermind. However it is not quite my experience of it... but facts will speak better than words. Meanwhile I suggest that you should replace the morning "darshan" by an evening "darshan" and come up every day after meditation.

With my love and blessings
