Chapter 2March 2, 1971

(A note of Mother’s.)

There is a Supreme Divinity,

witness of all our actions,

and the day for consequences will soon come.

(Extract from Sujata’s notebook. For the last two days Mother’s cheek has been very swollen from an

abscessed tooth.)

Mother is better. Tendency to be indrawn.

While she was holding my hands, it seemed to me that something went from me into her.

Mother seemed to be resting well.

(After having approved the layout of the jacket for “Supermanhood” designed by Sujata.)
