04. November 1970 – It’s a Whole New World As for me, I could keep listening like that without moving for hours! It’s very restful. I don’t know how to explain… It’s very restful. It’s strange… You no longer feel like moving, no longer feel like speaking, nothing anymore. |

05. November 1970 – Messengers of Light and Truth We want to be messengers of light and truth. And first of all, a future of harmony is waiting to be announced to the world. The time has come for the old habit of ruling through fear to be replaced with the rule of love. |

07. November 1970 – Past and Future Lives The knowledge of past lives is interesting for a knowledge of one’s nature and the mastery of one’s imperfections. But to tell the truth, it has no crucial importance and it is far more important to concentrate on the future, on the consciousness we must acquire and the development of the nature, which is almost limitless for those who know how to do it. We are at a specially favorable time of universal existence, when everything on the earth is preparing for a new creation, or rather a new manifestation in the eternal creation. |

14. November 1970 – About Children But if parents knew how to do it, they could… This child could be absolutely remarkable, you know, with a full conscious vital. Nowadays they bring me all the children born in Auroville, and I see… I see surprising things. With some (not many, one or two), it’s like a very small animal, it’s nothing — it’s very sweet: a very small animal. But with almost all of them, it’s a conscious being. And the parents are absolutely stupid in their behavior with them, because they don’t know, they don’t understand. I saw one today again (tiny gesture): he is three or four days old, five days — this big — and I saw the consciousness there is inside: it’s admirable! But then, they treat him like a small animal — he has no means of defense. (silence) Is it those little ones who will become the intermediary beings?… I don’t know. |

25. November 1970 – About Satprem’s Book On the Way to Supermanhood: It’s extraordinary! There is a sort of… a sort of EMOTION in it, which doesn’t belong to this world. It puts you into contact with a certain… I don’t know what to call it, but it’s like an emotion which is beyond the mind — beyond everything, everything, not only the mind but the intellectual. Its a new emotion. I can’t describe. It’s strange. And every time it does the same thing, every time I say to myself, “I’ll be very careful to follow and see” — and… I try to keep my consciousness in its natural state, but then IN SPITE OF MYSELF, it’s something that… It’s like a magic! It’s something like emotion, but an emotion that knows, an emotion that understands. It’s not a thought. It’s really interesting. And every time, it becomes increasingly conscious; every time, I say to myself, “This time, I won’t let myself get caught!” (laughter) But this time, I was more conscious of what it was… And it’s a new thing which is beyond the mind, the intellectual and the whole comprehension, and it’s a way of being that… (I don’t know what to call it), it’s something like an emotion, but very clear and VERY conscious. |

28. November 1970 – Savitri It lends beauty to the terror of the gulfs And fascinating eyes to perilous Gods, Invests with grace the demon and the snake. II.II.106 It’s charming! That’s exactly the nature of the vital, what Théon called the “nervous world.” |
