February 3, 1971

Now I am ready to listen to you.

We also need a message for the 21st of February.

What message?

I don’t know.

What do you suggest?… I can say something, or else we can find a quotation.

If you want to say something….

(silence)

Well, I always say the same thing: a life consecrated to union with the Divine is the only life worth living…. A life consecrated to the Divine is the only life worth living.

Will that do?

Yes, Mother, it certainly will!

You’ll have to come here (to the right) to read, because…. I am better, I am reeducating my eyes, they’re starting to see better. And I am going to reeducate my ear — this one (the right one) is open, but this one….

I am better, but I am not there yet.

(After Satprem’s reading of the book, Mother asks that it be

 translated into the languages of India and mentions

Bengali, Hindi, Oriya, and Tamil.)

(To Sujata:) You don’t know an Indian language well enough to translate it?

(Sujata laughs)

And then the Nordic countries.
