Physical mind
(Message for the fourth anniversary of the Supramental Manifestation upon earth)
“It is only when the Supramental manifests in the body-mind that its presence can be permanent.”
29 February 1972
“I heard something written by Sri Aurobindo, saying that for the Supramental to manifest upon earth the physical mind must receive it and manifest it — and it is just the physical mind, that is to say, the body-mind, the only thing that remains in me now. And then, the reason why only this part has remained became quite clear to me. It is on the way to being converted in a very rapid and interesting manner. This physical mind is being developed under the supramental Influence. And it is just what Sri Aurobindo has written, that this is indispensable so that the Supramental can manifest itself permanently upon earth.
So, it is going on well... but it is not easy (Mother laughs).”[1]

- “But it must be something very radical.
But it is radical, my child! You can’t imagine, it is like... I could say truly that I have become another person. There is only this (Mother touches the outer form of her body) which remains as it was.... To what extent will it be able to change? Sri Aurobindo has said that if the physical mind were transformed, the transformation of the body would follow quite naturally. We shall see.”[2]
