Opening to the Mother’s Presence
Make yourself quiet and open—have complete confi-
dence and you will feel the Mother’s presence with you.
*
The Mother says, “Keep yourself always open to me” and “I
am always with you and around you.” How am I to feel her
presence always? Also, what does “conscious” mean and how
does one become conscious?
The Divine Mother is everywhere and at all times she is with
you. If one opens and becomes conscious, then one can feel
her presence. It is because the nature is ignorant, full of it-
self and its desires that one cannot feel the presence. If one
turns from self and desires and lives inwardly and outwardly
for the Divine, then one begins to feel the divine Presence.

It is by the constant remembrance that the being is prepared
for the full opening. By the opening of the heart the Mother’s
presence begins to be felt and by the opening to her Power
above the Force of the higher consciousness comes down
into the body and works there to change the whole nature.

The formless and the form
It is quite necessary to realise the Mother in her formless
presence and not only in her form.
*
Is there any difference between the Mother’s Presence and
the Divine Consciousness?

One can feel the Divine Consciousness impersonally as a
new consciousness only. The Mother’s Presence is some-
thing more —one feels herself there present within or above
