His translations of some of the Mother's French Prières et méditations appear in volume 31, The Mother with Letters on the Mother. His translations from Sanskrit into Bengali appear in volume 9, Writings in Bengali and Sanskrit. The contents of the present volume are divided by original language into five parts.
