Sri Aurobindo
The Mother

to Prithwi Singh

Correspondence (1933-1967)

31 October 1935

Prithwi Singh — Sri Aurobindo

... page 45 of The Mother applied equally to Avatars as well as to Vibhutis.

But can the statement also be taken to mean that it is the personalities of the Mother who behind the veil prepare the condition for the descent of the Avatara or Vibhutis as “all creation is Her work”?

With deep devotion

Prithwisingh

If you mean the divine Personalities of the Mother — the answer is yes. It may even be said that each Vibhuti draws his energies from the Four, from one of them predominantly in most cases, as Napoleon from Mahakali, Rama from Mahalakshmi, Augustus Caesar from Mahasaraswati.
