4. The Mother in the Life of the Ashram

Fragment ID: 20160

Yesterday I heard the Mother playing Indian music and a few days ago she was corresponding with X about Indian music.

The Mother’s music has often been recognised by Y as Indian music of this or that raga. The Mother plays whatever comes through her – she does not usually play any previously composed music whether European or Indian – the latter in fact she has never learned.
