Page 297<\/font><\/p>\n “… For another WHO WANTS TO LEAVE, it’s the end, he goes over to the other side.”<\/i><\/p>\n It happened again yesterday, I saw the same thing. I was told about a child who was very ill, incurable, and they said he was in terrible pain, he was very miserable — the parents wanted him to pass away. He passed away an hour later. This morning I knew. I thought: Well, it’s like in the “Notes” — either the person himself wants to go, or those who are looking after him find he’s too miserable, and they ask; so instead of suffering for a long time, he leaves. That’s what I meant. * * * A little later<\/i> It’s really interesting, it’s as if my body were a battlefield between what obstinately wants to stay and what wants to take its place. There are such marvelous moments — glorious moments — and then, a second later, a minute later, such a violent attack! It’s like that. And my body is…. For food, for instance, there are times when I eat without even noticing I am eating, except that everything tastes delicious; and then a second later, I can’t swallow a thing! It’s like this (gesture of tugging from one side or the other). <\/i>So the only solution I have is to be as QUIET as possible. As soon as I am quiet, it feels better. It’s as if…. All of a sudden you have the impression that you are about to die, and a minute later, it’s … it’s eternity. Really an extraordinary experience. Extraordinary. Sometimes everything, everything seems so foggy, dark — there’s no hope, no possibility of seeing clearly — and a minute later, everything becomes clear. And at the moment, it’s like this (swinging gesture). <\/i>It’s only because my body has faith that — that it can go on. It’s quite interesting. (long silence)<\/i> When you let the Power flow through without diminishing or distorting it or … it’s unbelievable! Unbelievably powerful. And a minute later, you feel that the world is so dark and distorted that it’s hopeless. <\/i>Although perhaps there’s — perhaps — a small beginning of improvement in the proportion. (Mother goes within Page 298<\/font><\/p>\n Did you feel anything? What did you feel?<\/p>\n I don’t know…. I was trying to give myself.<\/i><\/p>\n (Mother smiles and takes Satprem’s hands) <\/i>It came very strongly, very strongly, like this (massive gesture falling from above). <\/i>You were in it. (silence)<\/i> It’s all right — it’s all right. Yes (gesture of surrender, hands open), <\/i>that’s the best thing to do. Oh, it’s so strong!
