What do we do about the Bulletin, Mother … the "Notes on<\/i><\/p>\n

 the
\n Way"?<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Do you have something?<\/p>\n

Almost nothing, just two small pieces.<\/i><\/p>\n

Go ahead, read them.
\n

(Satprem reads)<\/i>
\n

Is that all? …<\/p>\n

Yes [laughter]…. Obviously, you don’t feel like talking<\/i><\/p>\n

 anymore.<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

No. I can’t talk, it doesn’t come out clearly.<\/p>\n

But that’s not true! It does! It comes out very well.<\/i><\/p>\n

If you have a question, we can try.<\/p>\n

I don’t know, whenever I try to come into contact with that<\/i><\/p>\n

 Consciousness,
\n I always sense a sort of luminous immensity, as you say….<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Yes.<\/p>\n

But I feel it’s stationary, you see; I am in it and could stay in
\n it<\/i><\/p>\n

 forever, but….<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Exactly. That’s my own sensation too.<\/p>\n

But is it enough to let That permeate one? Isn’t there anything<\/i><\/p>\n

 else
\n to be done?<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Yes, I think so. I think it’s the only thing to do. Personally I keep
\nrepeating, "What You will, what You will, what You will…. Let


\nPage 374<\/font><\/p>\n

\n

 it be as You will, may I do as You will, may I be conscious of what You
\nwill."
\n

And also: "Without You, it’s death; with You, it’s life." By "death," I don’t mean physical death – it might happen, it might be that if I lost the contact now, it would be the end – but that’s impossible! I feel that … I AM THAT – With some resistances the present consciousness may still have, that’s all. [[This "if I lost the contact" and "that’s impossible" leads us back again to the same perplexing question. And we recall Mother’s words: "Only some violence could stop the transformation, otherwise it will go on and on and on…." (December 4, 1971, Agenda XII<\/i>) ]]
\n

And when I see somebody … (Mother opens her hands as if she were offering that person to the Light), <\/i>regardless of who it is: like this (same gesture).<\/i>
\n

(silence)<\/i>
\n

It’s funny, I constantly feel like a little baby curled up – curled up in … (what term to use?) an all-embracing <\/i>divine Consciousness.
\n

(Mother remains immobile)<\/i>
\n

And the slightest contradiction that enters the atmosphere causes me such discomfort, I feel I won’t be able to stand it.
\n

There, that’s how it is.
\n

Just now I had gone off like that, you see, but I suddenly felt uncomfortable and that pulled me back. It isn’t expressed mentally, it is neither an idea nor even a sensation, it’s … I don’t know what it is. It is like a negation, a painful negation. Which really makes me feel an acute pain, and I am pulled back into this physical consciousness.
\n

(Mother plunges in, then seems uncomfortable.<\/i>
\n

Champaklal comes and rings the bell)<\/i>
