Chapter 4March 4, 1971

(Mother takes Satprem’s hands. Then Sujata approaches. Let us note that Sujata had suggested to one of the attendants who prepares Mother’s food to prepare some coconut water for her. The suggestions

was reported to Mother. Behind Mother’s reply we can glimpse a whole world of things.)

It is rather the WAY of preparing things than new things.

(Mother replies to an Aurovillian:)

(Question:) You said you did not want to make rules for Auroville. But recently you wrote,

“Drugs are forbidden in Auroville.” Have you changed your view of Auroville?

Perhaps Aurovillians have not yet attained the level of consciousness expected of them.
