In addition, the volume contains Sri Aurobindo's translations of selections from the Mother's 'Prières et Méditations' as well as his translation of 'Radha's Prayer'.
THEME/S
Q: Is it not true that those who have faith in the Mother

have also love for her? Do not faith and love go together?
A: Not always. There are plenty of people who have some faith without love, though they may have a certain kind of mental bhakti, and plenty who have some love but no faith. But if it is the true psychic love, then faith goes with it, and if there is the entire faith, then the psychic love becomes soon awake. What you say is right if it is the soul's faith, the soul's love―but in some there is only a vital feeling and that brings, when it is disappointed, revolt and anger and they go away.
