Kort biografi
Mirra Alfassa, née à Paris d'une mère égyptienne et d'un père turc, rencontre Aurobindo, à Pondichéry, en 1914 ; c’est elle qu’il appellera « Mère », la fondatrice de « l’Ashram ». Après sa disparition en 1950, elle fondera un « Centre Universitaire International » et tentera d'éveiller les disciples à une « conscience nouvelle » au cours de centaines d’« Entretiens », puis se retirera fin 1958 pour aller à la racine du problème : le « yoga des cellules » qui devait la conduire à la découverte d’un « mental cellulaire » capable de reformer la condition du corps.
De 1958 à 1973, elle témoigne de la découverte du « Grand Passage » à une autre espèce et à un nouveau mode de vie dans la Matière. C’est toute l’histoire de l’Agenda (plus de 6000 pages en 13 volumes qui regroupent l'enregistrement de ses conversations avec Satprem, le disciple français qui fut le confident de sa lutte).
Enfin, en 1968, elle fonde Auroville, à quelques kilomètres de Pondichéry, comme « un laboratoire de l’évolution nouvelle ».

Flowers teach us the charm of silence and thus the self-giving which demands nothing in return. Be like a flower. One must try to become like a flower: open, frank, equal, generous and kind.

By entering into contact with the nature of a flower, its inner truth...one knows what it represents...if you are in contact with it, if you feel it, you can get an impression which may be translated as a thought. There is a kind of identification with the vibration, a perception of the quality that it represents...little by little there occurs a close approach between these vibrations, that are of the vital-emotional order, and the vibration of mental thought.

About the Author:

Mirra Alfassa, later Mirra Morisset and Mirra Richard (February 21, 1878 - November 17, 1973), also known as The Mother, was the spiritual partner of Sri Aurobindo.

She was born in Paris to Turkish and Egyptian parents and came to Sri Aurobindo's retreat on March 29, 1914 in Pondicherry to collaborate on editing the Arya. Having to leave Pondicherry during World War I, she spent most of her time in Japan where she met the poet Rabindranath Tagore. Finally she returned to Pondicherry and settled there in 1920. After November 24, 1926, when Sri Aurobindo retired into seclusion, she founded his ashram (Sri Aurobindo Ashram), with a handful of disciples living around the Master. With Sri Aurobindo's full approval she became the leader of the community, a position she held until her death. The Trust she had registered after Sri Aurobindo's death in 1950 continues to look after the institution.

The experiences of the last thirty years of Alfassa's life were captured in the 13-volume work The Agenda. In those years she attempted the physical transformation of her body in order to become what she felt was the first of a new type of human individual by opening to the Supramental Truth Consciousness, a new power of spirit that Sri Aurobindo had allegedly discovered. Sri Aurobindo considered her an incarnation of the Mother Divine, hence her followers calling her "the Mother". The Divine Mother is believed by some Hindus to be the feminine aspect (Creative Energy) of the Divine consciousness and spirit.
