Evening Talks with Sri Aurobindo

APRIL 1940

25th April, 1940

R was talking to C in the train that his difficulty was about accepting Mother, because he said they used to meditate together and therefore he found it difficult to accept her.

Disciple : Nobody ever meditated with the Mother before the Ashram came into existence in 1926.

Sri Aurobindo : Yes, even then in the beginning there were very few people.

Disciple : Mother used to meditate with Sri Aurobindo only.

Sri Aurobindo : Yes, but that was individual. She was coming to me and her position was special even from the very beginning. There was no comparison between others and Mother. There were people in the Ashram who thought that Mother had done no Sadhana before she came to India.
