Passages from The Mother [14]

In The Mother you write that the Mother as the Cosmic Mahashakti “stands there above the Gods and all her Powers and Personalities are put out in front of her for the action and she sends down emanations of them into these lower worlds to intervene, to govern, to battle and conquer, to lead and turn their cycles, to direct the total and the individual lines of their forces” [pp. 34 – 35]. Does this imply that the World War or the Bolshevik Revolution or the Satyagraha movement were in some manner arranged by the Mother?

They are incidents in the cosmic plan and so arranged by the cosmic Mahashakti and worked out by men under the impulse of the forces of Nature.
