(About a second operation that Satprem should – supposedly – undergo. Mother refuses and advises some exercises:)<\/i><\/p>\n
I was in fact asking for you to cure me without any operations!<\/i><\/p>\n
No, the body must be helped! It goes without saying that in the exercises and in the material aids and in everything I will put the Consciousness, but one must help – one must help the body. It’s a necessary modesty.

It’s the same thing with food. We are obliged to eat, of course, and that’s not interesting, it’s not for pleasure, but … (Mother speaks to her body:) “Look <\/i>here, be modest, indispensably modest: it’s necessary to eat and you must eat.” And in addition, we must eat what we SHOULD eat, what helps the body the most…. It’s a story I have been telling myself for years, but it’s absolutely true. And when you start getting proud, you get a good smack <\/i>on the face, that is to say, a pain or an accident: “That’s what you get! Now be modest, you understand?” Then it says, “Yes, yes, I’ve understood!”
