Reminiscences and Observations




"The Mother"

The Mother had not the same origin as the other books mentioned.1 The main part of this book describing the four Shaktis, etc., was written independently and not as a letter, so also the first part.


Q: I sent you a review of "The Mother" a few days back. Have you seen it?

A: Yes. I think it will give the reader the impression that The Mother is a philosophical or practical exposition of Yoga—while its atmosphere is really not that at all.
