Now whenever I sit for meditation, I see a very white light coming around me. The white Light is the Mother's light.

... These nether domain of our being have to be made conscious and responsive to the higher Light. The first thing to do is to exert a central will for the opening of the physical nature to the Mother's Light and Force. It will mean, in practice, the projection of a part of our most developed consciousness, and an infusion of its will and aspiration into the physical nature. The result may not be... the physical nature may repel the advances of the higher consciousness and refuse to be disturbed in its complacent darkness. But a quiet persistence is sure to prevail in making it open to the Mother's Light.

There is only silence. Why so? In the evening the Mother... altogether the way — if the mind is active it is more difficult to become aware of what the Mother is bringing.

There are many instances of this kind of extraordinary development of the capacities and faculties of the sâdhakas as a result of openness to the Mother's Light and Force.

Know that the Mother's light and force are the light and force of the Truth; remain always in contact with the Mother's light and force, then only can you grow into the divine Truth. 10 September 1931 I want to ask whether the idea of the Mother is the same as that... the Mother One Path There is something undivine in the world, a part that seems obscure; I said to the Mother that its truth here is expressed by the Mother's Light.

If you allow such strange and wrong ideas... divine Consciousness and the Light that comes from it is the light of the divine Truth; the Force that she brings down is the force of the divine Truth.

Yes—one aspiration to live in the Mother's light and force which bring the true knowledge and the true power. If that aspiration is fulfilled, then all else needed can be fulfilled—all the other lights can be contained in the Divine Light.... Yes, that is the attitude you have to keep. If it is kept, then Page 285 there will be no disturbance or only a superficial unease.

If the central will is sincere, each recognition of a mistake can become a stepping stone to a truer movement and a higher progress. I have stated very briefly in... your nature (especially, the lower vital and the subconscient which is active in sleep) keeps the memory and attachment to these movements, and you do not open these parts and make them accept the Mother's Light and Force to purify them. If you did that and, instead of lamenting and getting troubled and clinging to the idea that you cannot get rid of these things, insisted quietly with a calm faith and ...

In fact as soon as I knew of your pain I appealed to the Mother to relieve you. Nowadays my appeal has a double movement... you as "bluish-white, whitish-blue". It is interesting that you have employed two expressions for the same phenomenon. They touch off the dual joint presence of the Mother and Sri Aurobindo.

Probably it was from this divine Mother that human mothers had learnt to praise their own children. While She was saying this, the Mother looked exceedingly beautiful. It was after a long time that I had heard something like this from the Mother. After the descent of the Supramental Light in 1956, the Mother started becoming... sarees given by the Mother and went to Her for blessings. Gauri and I were both astonished beyond words. We had never imagined that what I had said in jest would become a reality. So the Mother definitely understands all our thoughts and desires! Let me tell you about another incident. It was 1956 after the descent of the Supramental Light when everyone was asking the Mother all sorts of questions ...
... Working against the Mother of Light, this Mother of Evil "with a grey distorted silhouette in the Night" strove to thwart the steady Page 102 climb of the soul and pull it to the depths if she could. This primal struggle goes on, in changing climes with changing vicissitudes; and still the Mother of Darkness "prowls around each light" and tries to slay in the cradle... "the divine Child". She is verily "a cowled fifth-columnist" who converts the climber of the worlds to defeatism and death! Like the Mother, so her sons: "terrible agencies", they are "offspring of the gulfs" and "haters of light" who "load the dice of Doom with wizard lies".

... understanding. As madame Théon told the Mother, building the bridges across the afterlife was part of what the Mother had come to do on Earth, and the light mentioned in all NDE experiences is the Mother’s Light. In the words of madame Théon: “All those whose psychic being is a little bit awake, and who are able to perceive your Light, will go to your Light at the moment of death, wherever they may... awake, and who are able to perceive your Light, will go to your Light at the moment of death, wherever they may die, and you will help them cross beyond.’ And that is a constant work.

The “pathways” the Mother built are what is described by many persons... bridge, or a narrow mountain pass. Still carried by his vital and mental body sheaths, the transiting person perceives the Light of the higher, spiritual hemisphere (in fact the Mother’s Light).

In work, although the exterior self is predominant, the inner is there just behind it, if not with it supporting it with the Mother's Force, Light and Peace.

... The right side of the Mother represented Light, on the left was Power. Each of us found a seat to her right or left according to the turn of our nature of the inner being. I was to her right, Amrita sat on her left. A strange thing used to happen every day at these meditations. Purushottam was one of our number in those days. He used to sit directly in front of the Mother, a little apart from the... in the nether world; his task was to work in that darkness, sweep it clean and make room for the Light, the Higher Forces of the Mother. This manner of working continued for some time; then it came to a halt, and we had only meditations. The Mother's endeavour at that time was for a new creation, the creation here of a new inner world of the Divine Consciousness. She had brought down the Higher... considered to be a necessity, a sign of the Mother's Grace. But these attentions were reserved only for two or three people. During this process, the Mother of course remained silent and engrossed in meditation. All was done, no doubt, under her control and guidance, but from an inner poise. One day, Purushottam proclaimed to the Mother in a loud voice, "Mother, I do not mean it as a boast, I mention this ...

Shiva said: “No. I will come... quite willing to help.” It was the day that he was present in my room, and he was so tall that his head touched the ceiling, with that particular light of him that is a mixture of gold and red — tremendous, a tremendous being!’ 19 The Mother is the mother of the whole manifested universe and everything it contains — a fact of which her greatest offspring, the positive forces called gods, are the most... seen as forms of light or as a play of lights.

"But it was always the same electric bulb!" He was quite taken aback. "I never, ever put any coloured bulb there." That taught me something, I can tell you. The next time I saw Mother with light around her, I did not make the same stupid mistake, I assure you. Talking of Mother reminds me of what she said to Satprem as... attending to the interval between wakefulness and sleep.

Shouldn't something... bewilderment at one desired project coming to nothing, your letter shows an attitude born of the soul's spontaneously profound wisdom. I would not be able to state better the keen devotion to the Mother's guiding light and the enthusiastic confidence in its being all-in-all for you. 1 note also the wide charity of your heart, the fervent good-will towards every creature. But your estimate of me seems too... Master who was a dispeller of all darkness and the feet of the Mother whose smile could heal every wound? Memorable was the whole series of darshans but perhaps the most memorable was the last on November 24,1950. And here I may speak of a reversal of the roles of the Master's look and the Mother's smile. Now it was the Mother whose look struck me. For even when I was at the door leading ...

To open to the Mother is to turn our consciousness to her, to open windows, so to say, on the infinite, and let her Force stream in.

She will become the finished beautiful crystal, in her the Mother of Sorrows will be turned into the Mother of Light and the Madonna of Love, and be ready for the work of realising on the earth the Life Divine. On the other hand, as Sri Aurobindo had warned her in his letter of 26... of the supramental Light and Force, and through it the supramentalisation of earth-existence - this was the master-plan for the terrestrial transformation, and the determined sadhak was destined to fare forward and storm the gates of Victory.

Seeking her soul she passed further through another zone where she met three universal Energies or Powers: The Mother of Sorrows, the Power of unlimited psychic sympathy and love, the Madonna of Might, the power of Right, maintaining the reign of Law in the world, the Mother of Light, —the power of mental or intellecutal—knowledge. Each of these had a deformation of its working reflected in human... prayed for divine Energy to hold all creatures in her mother's arms. In place of solitude of rapture she asked for the Divine Sweetness for Earth and man.

It is in response to... whatever she is trying to bring to her. She has power, yet she is unable to function here. Savitri proceeds further. If the physical world is to bear the higher descent, there must work the Mother of light-joy-peace, Prakash-Harsha-Shantimayi Mata. However, this goddess meets the opposition of an arrogant will. Savitri has to bring the absolute Wisdom, that in it might be born the divine family... However, for Savitri's mother Malawi this is altogether unacceptable. She pleads to her, in the way of human pragmatism, to make another choice.

Krishna's and Sri Aurobindo's Light—a whitish blue— surely needs for the preparation of its establishment in the mind the latter's complete psychicisation by devoted submission to the Mother.
