We can see in all those areas in past – where we had immense energy, tireless work and accomplishment. We have shed those attributes with only our goal at site at any cost, not our opinions, persons, facilities, comforts, timings etc., (I recall how I was on conducting my sister’s marriage, not minding anyone’s advices, insults and demands.)

• Napoleon hardly slept and his achievements are achievement of his emotions towards his wife.
• Our attachment to Mother or Consecration should achieve this. When She acts through the Consecration the devotee will be fresh, cheerful, and full of energy.
• We rest and sleep on problems that take our energy. We should sleep on Mother’s lap.
• Divine energy demands greater organization of consciousness in the devotee.
• We lose energy over pain. We need rest and sleep to overcome pain. Only divided being experiences pain. Pain itself is a device for the ego to quickly outgrow it. Pain is experienced, especially for devotees, only when they insist on ego and its growth as ego.
• Seeing the oneness in all releases the utmost energy. The secrete of energy is -Find God consciously inside and outside.
• What rest is in life is meditation in yoga. The only permissible rest for a devotee is that which gathers concentration to act in higher consciousness.

There is no stress. It is finding practical application part of Sri Karmayogi’s advice. In other words, it is an adventure on life through my consciousness, taking token act as instrument to understand the process of transformation.

Mothers comment on a newspaper article in which it was stated that the Mother had not slept for several months.

It is true that for a long time I have not slept in the usual sense of the word.
That is to say, at no time do I fall into the Inconscience which is the sign of ordinary sleep.

But I do give my body the rest it needs, that is, two or three hours of lying down in a condition of absolute immobility in which the whole being, mental, psychic, vital and physical, enters into a complete state of rest made of perfect peace, absolute silence and total immobility, while the consciousness remains perfectly awake; or else I enter into an internal activity of one or more states of being, an activity which constitutes the occult work and which, needless to say, is also perfectly conscious.

So I can say, in all truth, that I never lose consciousness throughout the twenty-four hours, which thus form an unbroken sequence, and that I no longer experience ordinary sleep, while still giving my body the rest that it needs.
