A Note

In January 1967, Mona took to the Mother a folder with twelve thick sheets of paper, one for each month of the year, to be made into a calendar. The idea was that the top half of each sheet would have a painting and the bottom half would have a short prayer written by the Mother. If the Mother wrote one prayer each month, then at the end of the year he would have a complete set of twelve prayers.

He showed the Mother the first sheet with a painting and asked Her to write a prayer beneath it. She told him that if he wanted a prayer, he should write his own prayer. She did not need to pray — to whom should She pray?

Mona replied that he prayed to the Mother to write a prayer for him. Pleased with his answer, She wrote a prayer for January. After this, when he brought Her the calendar each month, She would first read the prayer She had written for the previous month and then write a new one. In this way, with a few exceptions, She wrote a new prayer each month for the next six years — until March 1973.

This section of the book contains these prayers.

Usually, after writing a prayer, the Mother said something about it, giving an explanation, revealing its meaning. These explanations have also been included. Between 1967 and 1969 Mona noted them down from memory. From 1970 he recorded them on tape, so no notes were made. Unfortunately the tapes deteriorated over time and only a few of the Mother’s remarks could be retrieved.

Mona spoke of these prayers as an “inestimable treasure” and some of them he would repeat often. For him they were a source of peace and strength and joy. Like a child, he would bring out these gifts of the Divine and share with others the power, the love and the light that they carry.
