(Letter to Mother from Satprem)
Pondicherry, May 7, 1959
Sweet Mother,
1. In which Mother had asked about certain experiences that occurred during her meditations with X.
2. Another globe, or perhaps the same one, but this time orange colored.
I spoke of your experience, but with all these people we scarcely have time to speak, so I was unable to give many details or to

get any very clear explanation. X is well acquainted with this Light - these luminous bluish-violet waves with the white bar running through the center. He gave me his own description, which coincides exactly with yours ... In short, he wanted to say that perhaps this Light was the result of his concentrating upon you, even when he is in Rameswaram. I spoke to him of the universalization of your body. He nodded, like someone who understands, but without making any comment. As for the orange globe, this is what he said: 'Every time, before meditation with Mother, I utter some letters. And as you know, each letter has a color. There are 51 ways to combine letters, and there are 51 "paths," or 51 places in the body where the force can act. Thus the orange globe is probably the effect of some letters; it may be some protection for her body.' In any case, he seemed to find it quite normal that your experiences of this bluish-violet light began approximately at the same time as your relationship, and in all the pujas there are these 'diagrams' or 'Yantras' that always have geometric forms. (One day he told me, 'Those diagrams are the stations for the goddesses to come down.')
When I went to get D this evening, she told me that she was in the grip of some difficulties, as if this mantra had provoked a backlash. X immediately did some little operation, and she left all smiling.
For me, this is what he said: 'Tomorrow I shall give you another mantra of three letters. Now I am going to change the Power into a feminine form. After some time you will see a small girl appear in front of you, a girl of about 10, and SHE WILL COME TO HELP YOU. This mantra you will have to repeat 3 lahks* for three months. And after three months, I shall give you FULL initiation.' Then he explained to me that the sea could not be made to enter into a vase at one stroke; rather, the body had to become accustomed little by little and, precisely, the sadhana is meant to accustom the body more and more to receive the vastness of the Power (to put it very succinctly).
Your child,
