India - the Mother

April 25, 1961

(Mother is shown brochures of various proselytizing "spiritual" movements and informed that some of her "disciples" have also been bitten by the propaganda bug.)

I am surrounded by people who tell me, "I am sending your message to so-and-so, they MUST come here, they HAVE to meet you." Oh!... "I am going away," I said to myself, "I am going to hide somewhere." I've had enough. I don't want to be the leader of a group—oh Lord, no! Not at any price! It's disgusting....

The first thing I did this morning was to open this book by Alice Bailey.¹⁶ Ah, I said—well, well! Here's a person who's dead now, but she was considered a very great spiritual leader, she was the disciple of a Tibetan Buddhist lama, and she writes, "Christ is the incarnation of divine love on earth." And that's that. "And the world will be transformed when Christ is reborn, when he comes back to earth." But why the devil should it be Christ? Why does she put "Christ"? Because she was born Christian? It's pitiful.... These people just can't get out of their education.

And such a mixture of everything—everything! Instead of making a synthesis, they make a hotchpotch. They scoop it all up, toss it together, whip it up a little, use a bunch of words that have nothing to do with one another, and then serve it to you!

And they want to shove me in there, too! No thanks.
