Manifestation of the Divine

February 1967

Bonjour!

Bonjour, Douce Mère.

What is it?

(I show Her the calendar.)

What is to be done?

Mother, You told me that You would give a prayer for each month.

Oh! I promised this to you?

Mother, You said . . .

Well. But what did I give you for the month of January? Did I give you a prayer?

Yes, Mother. Here it is. (I show the calendar to the Mother and She reads what She had written for January.)

Oh! It is something! Then, I should give you one for this month?

Mother, You said . . .

Let me read once again what I wrote for the last month. (The Mother reads the prayer.) Yes, it is all right . . . all right.

Now, for this month.

(I tell the Mother about the painting.) Mother, this here is ‘Divine Love’⁵ as it is the month of February, Your month. And on top is ‘Unmanifest Divine Love’⁶. And here, at the bottom, are ‘Aspiration in the Physical for the Divine Love’ ⁷.

Yes, I understand. I have seen; it is good.

(The Mother concentrates, then writes:)

Seigneur Supreme
Donne-moi la perception constante
que sans Toi rien n’existe.

Supreme Lord
Give me the constant perception
that without Thee nothing exists.

Well? . . . satisfied?

Yes, Mother. It is very good.

Yes, it is very appropriate for you. You must find this in your daily life and act constantly from this attitude. Let me read it once again to see if I have made any mistake. (The Mother reads the prayer.) No, it is all right. Yes, this is for you. It is a big work! This has to be found; then you will see how different life is. It is a radical change: to live with this perception that ‘nothing exists without Thee’; that He is the mover and the raison d’être; that it is through Him that the manifestation unfolds; that it is because of Him that life has a significance and an aim; that He is behind all things, guiding one imperceptibly towards the goal.

You must live in this consciousness. You will have it soon. It is for this month. We shall see for the next month what you will have as a prayer. This too is very beautiful when one realises it.

Well, it is good.
