The Mother

We have not heard of the Mother's psychic being since 1950, at the time of Sri Aurobindo's passing away, when by a yogic master act she 'locked it away' in order to prevent it from following Sri Aurobindo and leaving the body. The door of her psychic being was opened again in 1959, 'very prudently,' when the supramental Force for the first time penetrated fully into her body and put her physically into connection with the 'dwelling' of Sri Aurobindo. Since then, again, there was no reference to her psychic being - until 1968, after the ordeal we have referred to in the first section of this chapter. ...
         How had she not been practically aware of a fact like this before? She herself gives the reason: she was that psychic being, all the time she acted and perceived out of her psychic being. -p519
