March 27, 1971

(Mother remains very interiorized. One has the impression of a

 total passivity within tremendous activity. It feels as if one

were in an almost crushing bath of power.)

Here!

(Mother is holding a full

 newspaper page on her knees)

It’s the introduction of your book … in America.

It’s in "Ulster County" [the piece had been submitted without

 comment by American friends to the Ulster County Townsman,

 a weekly newspaper published in Woodstock, New York, and

in people’s individual consciousness, one more and more gets

the impression that there is a radical change….

(Mother nods vigorously)

It’s no longer the Falsehood attacking the Truth, the Truth is

 attacking the Falsehood.

(Mother nods yes,
then goes within for a long time)

Isn’t this the prelude to the reunification of India?

Yes.

(Mother goes back within)

At the last Darshan [in February] someone had a vision. It’s G.,

I might add.

Oh!

While you were there, he saw your body as usual, but suddenly

your arms were … tremendous, immense, stretched open like

this, fantastic arms, and the people from the Ashram were

 here, below, very close, and behind, there were crowds and

 crowds and crowds … coming into those arms. As if, from far

 away, all of humanity were coming here, drawing near.

(Mother nods her head

 and goes within)
