Mother's transformation
(Mother to Mona Sarkar:) “Earlier, fairly long ago, when I became aware of the possibility of the transformation of this body – however I knew well that this body would be transformed – but when I was given the indication and I saw the concrete possibility before me, then I began the work, and it was really a challenge against Nature who did not want to change, who did not want to be transformed. So She began to revolt, to resist in hundreds of ways – to block here, to remove something there, to oppose me in such a way that I would abandon this movement against Her. Nature is formidable in Her own domain. And She began to send all sorts of discomforts aimed at me. They would literally hit me, and the body would undergo acute anguish and suffering – frightful pain everywhere, everywhere... it was unbearable – it was as if the devil had been let loose with all his tricks to do mischief. And the poor body which was not accustomed to endure all these misfortunes, would groan, would cry out in pain and had all sorts of reactions against all these attacks. And my only defence was to endure courageously, to try to cut the connection with my body; or else I tried to detach myself from the pain. But I do not give up so easily. Thus a tremendous battle began, a fierce fight ensued, in which neither of us would give up. The effects and the consequences were disastrous. The poor body suffered, but like a conquerer it voluntarily endured, even if it meant that it had to perish or get dissolved.
At that time, when the attack turned very violent, I asked someone to play for me a piece of my music. At once, within a minute, the body became calm and the pain diminished considerably. The nerves became tranquil, as if a balming effect spread over the body.”[1]
(Mother to Mona Sarkar:) “But now I have found a method which is invincible. I open myself towards the heights and as soon as I utter “What Thou willest, Lord, what Thou willest...” the miracle happens. It is no longer I who work to transform the cells, it is He who does all, who arranges everything, who opens the cells to the transforming Light and who infuses them with the Divine Joy. I only remain open to Him and repeat: “What Thou willest, Lord, what Thou willest”. It is so beautiful, so marvellous, and at once all discomforts vanish. The body vibrates with joy, and an ardour to remain in this sovereign consciousness lifts me up towards all that is divine, purely divine, solemnly divine. It is fantastic! It is the New Consciousness – an identification, or rather a union with the Supreme. The body becomes vast and immutable, united with His Consciousness, with a vision of the whole, as if seeing through His vision, feeling through His perception of the whole. It is an absolutely different experience of the whole as well as of the individual. … There is a divine élan – the soul that acts, that feels, that perceives, that understands, that absorbs and directs everything that should be done, and what is necessary for this material existence in the process of transformation into the Superman. It is unbelievable, the possibilities which appear and open up.”[2]
(Mother to Mona Sarkar:) “All that was conceived, all that was promised is now materialising. And the transformation of the body is no longer a vain mirage – it is a fact, a process that has taken root and is developing and moving steadily towards a luminous future. Already the body is responding so marvellously to the New Light. And more and more the body feels itself vibrating with a divine confidence. What it can accomplish I do not doubt at all. Nothing seems impossible for it, and its capacity has increased tremendously with an unlimited power and energy. The body is becoming vast, as vast as the universe. The body has already undergone a sort of transformation of the cells and it projects what one conceives of as that Eternal Form with the Eternal Beauty.
Evidently it is a thousand times more beautiful than what man can ever imagine. It has no age and will never be dissolved by time or its consequences... I have become like an infant, but so prodigious! (gesture)
The body is luminous, transparent, plastic, malleable – and can take any form according to its need. Even the quality of its consciousness has changed so much that the past no longer exists for it, and so many other things that cannot be expressed in words. Oh, it is marvellous! It is extraordinary! It is unbelievable!
But... no one will be able to understand nor believe nor assimilate even a hundredth part of what is happening to me. This is the truth that surpasses all comprehension.
(Mother goes into trance)
- (Mona Sarkar:) Mother...
Yes, my child.
- Mother, speak more about this extraordinary phenomenon that You are engaged in, the experience of the Supramental transformation of Your body. Mother, tell me more. It is so beautiful, so marvellous. Mother, speak more about Your experiences.
But these are no longer experiences, no longer realisations, not even living in the way we conceive of the highest, truest, and most vast. But it is rather ‘being’ - ‘being’ more than ‘becoming’. It is being divine; it is being the Supreme Consciousness; what He is and what He will be, more and more. And...
But no one will be able to understand me,... no one!... or grasp;... no one possesses this vision or has the knowledge to understand even a bit of what is happening in me. On the contrary, they will accuse me of creating absurd phantasmagorias which tend towards the irreality of things with false and illusory imaginations; or still more, that they are the mutterings of a child who has lost its head and such comments which have no real truth. And what more, I do not know. But it does not bother me at all, not at all. It does not affect me at all. If man in his ignorance, in his inconscience talks nonsense and heaps all sorts of abuses which he has the habit of throwing at anything that he does not understand, it is his foolishness. If he still denies the Truth, it does not touch me. I remain above, knowing well that the Lord knows everything and it is He who is guiding me. He is my refuge. I am one with Him.
...Yet there remains a problem which must be solved. How all this work that I have done on my body, – that I have accomplished and achieved in my body, – this work of the transformation of matter, (gesture) even of this body, – which has begun well, – how to perpetuate this movement in the terrestrial existence so that the nucleus of a new race can take root? How to convince the earth, the terrestrial consciousness, to accept this new process of realising the next step in terrestrial evolution,... to launch itself towards vaster and truer horizons? I am still searching in this thick inconscience which man in his ignorance wants to cling to, and does not want to change...
But I have not lost hope, for the Lord is guiding me and He knows better His affairs and will arrange whatever has to be done. I leave it to Him: “What Thou willest! What Thou willest...”
- Mother, if I only knew what to do, or how to be useful, I would do everything, Mother.
Leave everything to me and abandon yourself in the current and you shall be guided. It is evident that the purpose of my descending here on earth, for the transformation of the body and eventually of the earth, by the transforming action of the Supramental, would be accomplished if I could sow a seed of this Supramental substance in the human species and which will then ensure its continuity on earth... Even if it be only a thousandth infinitesimal part of what I carry, it will be sufficient to perpetuate this movement.
Otherwise... I would say that the earth and men were not ready, were not receptive enough to accept the descent of a greater Light, a greater Knowledge, a greater Ananda, were not ready to open themselves to the Eternal, to the Truth of existence.
Voilà! Now I must not speak further. I have talked a lot, revealed much, much more than I should have. Hurry up, it is very late. Au revoir!”[3]
