Ambu's Correspondence with The Mother

8 November 1934

(Early in November the disciple sent to the Mother a bound notebook and asked her to write something for him every day in it. For the next six months, she wrote one page a day for him. Often she chose a sentence from one of the world's scriptures or from the works of various thinkers and sages. This book of sayings was later published under the title The Lesson of Life. In the following letters these sayings are sometimes mentioned.)

My dear Baby,

I have not waited for your heart to open. I have settled there already. Follow the advice of Saadi: contemplate your heart steadily and you will find me there.

With love and blessings
