I have a letter from P.L. [the friend in the Vatican]. Here’s what<\/i><\/p>\n
he says:<\/i><\/p>\n<\/p>\n
"… Thanks to Mother’s Protection, things around me<\/i><\/p>\n
had calmed down a little, when suddenly the storm <\/i>\n <\/p>\n
broke out again. To the former intrigues have now been<\/i><\/p>\n
added slander and … a threat of expulsion (which in<\/i><\/p>\n
itself I would not mind, but they should not triumph!).<\/i><\/p>\n
This threat is in fact meant to upset me and force me to<\/i><\/p>\n
change my attitude. I feel the need to go back and see<\/i><\/p>\n
Mother – the sooner the better. But practically I cannot <\/i><\/p>\n
do it; furthermore, I am being watched; I am afraid that<\/i><\/p>\n
if they find out I am going to Pondicherry, they will try<\/i><\/p>\n
to set the Bishop against the Ashram, for, as you know,<\/i><\/p>\n
if he is now quiet, it is because of a certain intervention,<\/i><\/p>\n
which was very discreet but effective. Naturally, the<\/i><\/p>\n
others know nothing of my intercession with T. [[Tisserant, the Cardinal of France, had written to the Pondicherry "Mission" to quiet them down. ]] <\/i>\n <\/p>\n<\/p>\n
I have been preoccupied with him.<\/p>\n
One day, I was very much preoccupied with him.<\/i><\/p>\n
(silence)<\/i>
\n
Would you like us to go into silence?
