Mother’s words are as follows:

How many times people meet those who are nervous, angry, in a bad mood, and themselves become nervous, angry, moody, just like that, without quite knowing why. Why is it that when you play against certain people you play very well, but when you play against others you cannot play? And those very quiet people, not at all wicked, who suddenly become furious when they are in a furious crowd! And no one knows who has started it: it is something that went past and swept off the consciousness. There are people who can let out vibrations like this and others respond without knowing why. Everything is like that, from the smallest to the biggest things. It is the same thing in the inner world, in your consciousness.

So What I need from you is: To be individualised in a collectivity. One who is absolutely conscious of oneself. To be in this state of attentive observation, so to say- antennae everywhere -which are in constant contact with your true centre of consciousness that aspires for the Divine. If you want to benefit most from the conditions and circumstances in which you find yourself, you must be fully conscious: you must not be taken by surprise, you must not do things without knowing why, you must not say things without knowing why. You cannot be influenced by one. You must be constantly awake.

That is the way you can practice constant remembrance of the Divine. This is what I call as “Becoming Conscious”.

To be individualised in a collectivity, we should become the Self, which is above all intermixture, that is, what I call the Truth of your being. And as long as you are not conscious of the Truth of your being, you are moved by all kinds of things, without taking any note of it at all.

Collective thought, collective suggestions are a formidable influence which act constantly on individual thought. And what is extraordinary is that one does not notice it. One believes that one thinks “like that”, but in truth it is the collectivity which thinks “like that”. The mass is always inferior to the individual. Take individuals with similar qualities, of similar categories, well, when they are alone these individuals are at least two degrees better than people of the same category in a crowd. There is a mixture of obscurities, a mixture of unconsciousness, and inevitably you slip into this unconsciousness. To escape this there is but one means: to become conscious of oneself, more and more conscious and more and more attentive.

Unless this consciousness is developed and practiced as Discipline -there is no meaning in telling that I am always thinking of Divine- be not influenced by the Divine and ending up doing , all the things that Divine don’t want you to do.
