The Mother

Agenda

Volume 8

January 4, 1967

  About a European visitor

My impression was that she should let herself unwind, that her stay here would be good if she could open out, as a flower does, like that, relaxed.

She is very tense towards life (Mother clenches her two fists and stiffens): it's “something to keep an eye on” and “beware of”! So if she could... After all, it's such a great thing when you can say, “Oh, I can have trust, there REALLY is something concrete like a Grace, I can have trust.”

That would be a great progress.

(Mother gives a flower called “Radha”)

Radha1 is surrender.2 So we'll say, “Surrender to divine solicitude brings the victory.”

 

1 In Indian mythology, Radha gave herself wholly to Sri Krishna.
