 <\/p>\n

\n

This volume consists of two different but related works of Sri
\nAurobindo: The Mother <\/i>and Letters on the Mother<\/i>. It also includes his translations of passages from the Mother’s
\n\t\t\t\tPrayers<\/i> and Meditations<\/i>. These three constituents make up the three parts of the volume.\n\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n

\n

The Mother <\/i>consists of six chapters, all of them written in 1927. The first chapter was originally written as a message, the
\nsecond to fifth chapters as letters. The sixth and longest chapter was written for inclusion in a booklet that eventually comprised
\nthe message, the letters, and Chapter 6. This booklet was first published under the title
\n\t\t\t\tThe Mother <\/i>in 1928. The present text
\nhas been checked against Sri Aurobindo’s manuscripts. <\/p>\n

The letters on the Mother included in Part Two have been
\nselected from the large body of letters that Sri Aurobindo wrote to disciples and others between 1927 and 1950. Most of his letters from this period are published in
\n\t\t\t\tLetters on Yoga<\/i>, volumes 28 \u00ad 31 of THE COMPLETE WORKS OF SRI AUROBINDO. Others
\nappear in volume 35, Letters on Himself and the Ashram<\/i>, and volume 27,
\nLetters on Poetry and Art<\/i>. The letters chosen for
\ninclusion in the present volume deal with the Mother in her individual, universal and transcendent aspects. They have been
\narranged in five sections. Many letters are preceded by the questions or comments that elicited Sri Aurobindo’s reply. The texts
\nof the letters have been checked, whenever possible, against Sri Aurobindo’s manuscripts. <\/p>\n

The translated extracts from the Mother’s
\n\t\t\t\tPri\u00e8res et M\u00e9ditations
\n<\/i>(Prayers and Meditations<\/i>) included in Part Three comprise
\nall the passages that Sri Aurobindo is known to have translated entirely on his own. His translation of “Radha’s Prayer” is also
\nincluded in this part.
