From many instances I have come to know
\nthat my face is like a mirror showing to each one the image of his own internal
\ncondition.<\/span><\/p>\n

28 June 1931 <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

I feel inclined to reply:<\/span><\/p>\n

I live so far from all these conventions that
\nI had not even thought of that.<\/span><\/p>\n

16 May 1932 <\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

About <\/span><\/i>24 April 1920<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

The anniversary of my return to
\nPondicherry, which was the tangible sign of the sure Victory over the adverse
\nforces.<\/span><\/p>\n

24 April 1937<\/span><\/i> <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWho are you?\u201d asks the adverse force. <\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cI am the impartial and truthful mirror in
\nwhich each one can find his true likeness.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

The Supermind had descended long ago very
\nlong ago into the mind and even into the vital: it was working in the physical
\nalso but indirectly through those intermediaries. The question was about the
\ndirect action of the Supermind in the physical. Sri Aurobindo said it could be
\npossible only if the physical mind received the supramental light: the physical
\nmind was the instrument for direct action upon the most material. This physical <\/span><\/p>\n

mind receiving the supramental light Sri
\nAurobindo called the Mind of Light.<\/span><\/p>\n

29 June 1953 <\/span><\/i>  <\/span><\/p>\n

As soon as Sri Aurobindo withdrew from his
\nbody, what he has called the Mind of Light got realised in me. <\/span><\/p>\n

\n        <\/span>MOTHER’S SYMBOL<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The central circle represents the Divine
\nConsciousness. <\/span><\/p>\n

The four petals represent the four powers
\nof the Mother. <\/span><\/p>\n

The twelve petals represent the twelve
\npowers of the Mother manifested for Her work.  <\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
\n

<\/span><\/div>\n

 The central circle represents the Supreme
\nMother, the Mahashakti<\/span>. <\/span><\/p>\n

The four central petals are the four
\naspects of the Mother \u2013 and the twelve petals, Her twelve attributes. <\/span><\/p>\n

1955 <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

 It is the symbolic design of the white
\nLotus of Supreme Consciousness, with the Mahashakti<\/span>
\n(the form of the Mother as universal creation) at the centre in her four
\naspects and twelve attributes. <\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Sri Aurobindo says, \u201cThe true basis of education is the study of the
\nhuman mind, infant, adolescent and adult.\u201d But how does one study? Where does
\none start? What are the steps in this study? <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

Do not ask me any questions about the
\nmind; I am no longer interested in it. I am concentrated on union with the overmind<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

9 December 1972<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n

How to learn to receive a solution for problems? <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

 <\/span><\/p>\n

I cannot give it mentally; it is to be
\nreceived inwardly.<\/span><\/p>\n

\n

My help is always with you as active as
\never; but I do no more answer mentally.<\/span><\/p>\n

5 March 1973 <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Why do you want me to say something?<\/span><\/p>\n

In silence is the greatest power.<\/span> <\/span><\/p>\n
