Integral Yoga
This volume consists of two separate but related works: 'The Mother', a collection of short prose pieces on the Mother, and 'Letters on the Mother', a selection of letters by Sri Aurobindo in which he referred to the Mother in her transcendent, universal and individual aspects. 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
Yes, that is correct. Mother does not care for the food for itself; but she allows X to do it as an offering. So with the work―although the work has its own importance. Y and Z are not given physical or practical external work because their energy cannot run in that direction and they cannot do it―not because training in physical and practical work is not good for all. In ideal circumstances a many-sided activity of the being would be the best―but as yet it is not always practicable.
