Q: It seems to me that the very land of Auroville aspires. Is it true, Sweet Mother ?
A: The Mother: Yes, the land itself has a consciousness, even though this consciousness is not intellectualized and cannot express itself.
(Shyam Sunder Jhunjhunwala, From the Editor’s Desk, ‘Some Socio-Spiritual Perspectives, Sri Aurobindo Action’, Pondicherry)
Q: What is the right thing that we should expect from You ?
A: The Mother: Everything.
Q: What have You been expecting from us and from humanity in general for the accomplishment of Your Work upon earth ?
A: The Mother: Nothing.
Q: From Your long experience of over sixty years, have You found that Your expectation from us and from humanity has been sufficiently fulfilled?
A: The Mother: As I am expecting nothing I cannot answer this question.
Q: Does the success of Your Work for us and for humanity depend in any way upon the fulfilment of Your expectation from us and from humanity ?
A: The Mother: Happily not.
(Note: On Feb 25, 1968 the New Age Association held a seminar given by the Mother: "What we expect from the Mother." ‘For a start the Mother herself was asked a series of questions, and pat came the answers.’ - K.R. Srinivasa Iyengar in ‘On The Mother’, Sri Aurobindo Ashram Trust, Pondicherry)
