Power of expression

Remarkable power of expression, which comes in this way, spontaneously, through the inner contact with the psychic being.

The Mother

The Mother. Collected Works of the Mother.- Volume 8. - Questions And Answers (1956)

An exterior power has value only in proportion of its expression of the power of Truth.

The Mother

The Mother. Collected Works of the Mother.- Volume 14. - Words of the Mother

The power of expression comes by getting in touch with the inner source from which these things come.

Expression

For a certain state of consciousness there is not a single word, not a gesture, not an action which does not express a deeper or higher reality, more lasting, more essential, more true; and once one has seen and felt that, everything takes on a meaning, and one sees more clearly how things ought to be organised, arranged, so that a deeper truth may express itself still better than it does at present.

The Mother

The Mother. Collected Works of the Mother.- Volume 8. - Questions And Answers (1956)

The truest expression comes out of an absolute inner silence.

In all things that strive towards a new, ever higher and completer expression, Thou art present.
