PUB LISHER’S NOTE

 

AFTER The Mother came to India and joined Sri Aurobindo in his spiritual work, a number of questions were put to him by his disciples and others about her. The answers given by Sri Aurobindo to these questions have been compiled in this book and presented in different sections to facilitate proper understanding. Some of these letters have already been published in various books of Sri Aurobindo’s letters but quite a number of them are being published for the first time. In some cases where the whole letter dealt with many topics, only the portion dealing with The Mother has been extracted for inclusion in this book. The extract on "The World Mother" at the end of Section Two is taken from "The Synthesis of Yoga" by Sri Aurobindo; it is only the passage in this book that is not a letter.
