May 14, 1969

(For several days, Mother has been unwell:

 A "heart attack.")

The movement is accelerating.

It was the turn of the heart, so the doctor forbade me to see people – but that’s not possible. The day before yesterday, I was busy; yesterday, I saw a few people … altogether, it gets to be some fifty people! Fantastic.

Yes, it began on Sunday (I saw you on Saturday the 10th, and it began on Sunday). It started with a kind of raging toothache, but it wasn’t that …. There’s the whole resistance centered here (gesture to the throat and mouth). So it caught on here, and the pain became so acute (and naturally, impossible to eat), then … Naturally, I concentrated, I wanted to know, and I realized all that was the preparation for … (Mother points to her heart).

So it’s a bit difficult. There.

But interesting, very interesting.

(Mother remains in contemplation

 till the end)

I’ll speak afterwards, in a few days.

It’s extremely interesting, but it’s … it touches the very heart of things. In three or four days, that is, maybe on Saturday, or maybe next Wednesday, I will tell you. [[Let us note that two days later, on May 16, Pavitra left his body. ]]
