(Sujata's visit to Mother. The day before, Sujata had gone to the Cazanove gardens, in the suburbs of Pondicherry, to see the tombstones of Pavitra and Amrita.)
(Sujata:) Yesterday I went to visit Cazanove.
Oh, why?
To see Amritada and Pavitrada.... You know, nothing has been done, no work until now to cover the tombs, in two years.
How are they?
They are covered with “Sri Aurobindo's Compassion,” and
near the head, there is a slightly broken pot with “new creation,” and near the feet a pot of
“devotion,”1 the same for both.... I found that very nice, but nothing has been done.
I've never heard Pavitra complain about it! (laughter)
I see Pavitra very often, almost every night.
Maybe he likes it that way.
Even last night I saw him: he was in Japan.
When did they leave?
Amritada left on January 31, 1969 and Pavitrada in May, May 16.
Oh, Pavitra left after.
You know, time and me....
Pavitra is here, he's very active, he stays near me, I see him very often. Amrita I don't see that much. Pavitra was absorbed into me and I put him back into a form little by little, and when he was completely formed, I brought him out and he stays very close here.
What does he do?
He meets people, he does all sorts of things.
What work does he do?
He meets people, talks, but he's here, he hasn't left the earth's atmosphere. Amrita left to rest; Pavitra is here, in the subtle physical – that's where Sri Aurobindo is and it's a physical that has a strong tendency to materialize.
We'll see....
