 “Lord, very humbly I pray to Thee that I may be equal to my task, that nothing in me, conscious or unconscious, may betray Thee by neglecting to serve Thy sacred mission.”

The Mother, Prayers and Meditations-20.02.1914

 

<<Seigneur, très humblement, je prie pour être à la hauteur de ma tâche, que rien en moi, conscient ou non, ne Te trahisse en négligeant de servir Ta mission sacrée.>>

 La Mère, Prières et Méditations-20.02.1914

            "Question: Is it right to say that those who know French will be able to serve the Mother better in the years to come?

Answer: It is mostly that it brings a certain closeness to one side of the Mother.”

Sri Aurobindo

  SABCL/25/The Mother-368-369

            Sri Aurobindo had a great liking for France. I was born there – certainly for a reason. In my case, I know it very well: it was the need of culture, of a clear and precise mind, of refined thought, taste and clarity of mind – there is no other country in the world for that. None. And Sri Aurobindo had a liking for France for that same reason, a great liking. He used to say that throughout his (fourteen years) life in England, he had a much greater liking for France than for England!”
