(Mother has a bloodshot left eye and a swollen cheek.)
Are you all right?
Yes, Mother, and you?
Toothache… Always something… It doesn’t matter.
It’s interesting simply because there isn’t that spontaneous reaction everyone has (gesture turned in) of seeing and acting in relation with this (Mother points to her body). This [the body] is like this (gesture of abolition), it doesn’t exist. Very strange—and spontaneously. It’s not the result of a will or even a thought, a consciousness: it’s a natural state. As if it did not exist. And I suppose that’s why every little corner that isn’t yet exactly as it should be goes wrong, and then… Then it has to set itself right, that’s all.
From the standpoint of consciousness, it’s quite fine—quite fine. It becomes natural, quite spontaneous, effortless.
The center isn’t there, you understand! (Mother laughs, pointing to her body) Even, even physically.
It’s all right.

(Then Mother translates a few fragments of Savitri:)
This mire must harbour the orchid and the rose,
From her blind unwilling substance must emerge
A beauty that belongs to happier spheres.

It’s magnificent!…
Is T. translating it into English?
Is she interested?
Don’t know.
And German?… If there were someone…
(silence)
It leaves me the whole day in a very comfortable atmosphere.
We still have some time. We can still have a little moment of quiet.
