Flowers and Benedictions -THE MOTHER

O Lord...Thou hast put
   a magical power in these flowers:
they seem to speak of
   Thy sole Presence;
they bring with them
    the smile of the Divine.



''Lo! here are flowers and benedictions! here is the smile of divine Love!
It is without preferences and without repulsions. It streams out towards
all in a generous flow and never takes back its marvellous gifts!''

Her arms outstretched in a gesture of ecstasy, the Eternal Mother pours
upon the world the unceasing dew of Her purest love.

Flowers manifest the Divine Love by offering of their beauty and fragrance in a loving
efflorescence.



Meditation of the Mother on April 1,  1917 [in Japan

Thou hast shown to my mute and expectant soul all the splendour of fairy landscapes:
trees at festival and lonely paths that seem to scale the sky....
 
Once more, everywhere I see cherry trees; Thou hast put a magical power in these flowers:
they seem to speak of  Thy sole Presence; they bring with them the smile of the Divine.

My body is at rest and my soul blossoms in light : What kind of a charm hast Thou put into these trees in flower?

 O   Japan, it is thy festive adorning, expression of thy goodwill, it is thy purest offering, the pledge
of thy fidelity; it is thy way of saying that thou dost mirror the sky.

BE LIKE A FLOWER. OPEN, FRANK,GENEROUS & KIND.

RADIATE JOY AND BEAUTY.

Prayers and Meditations - February 25-26, 1914

He who wants to serve Thee  worthily should not be attached  to anything,  not even to those  activities which enable him to commune more consciously with Thee....But if as a result of the totality of circumstances, material things still take a greater place in life  than usual,  one must know how not to become absorbed by them,  how to keep in one's inmost heart the clear vision of  Thy presence and live constantly in that serene peace which nothing can disturb....

Oh, to do everything seeing only Thee everywhere and thus soar above the act that has been carried out, without letting any chain that holds us prisoners to the earth burden our flight....

O Lord, grant that the offering I make to Thee of my being may be integral and effective.

With a respectful and loving devotion I bow down before Thee, O ineffable Essence, inconceivable Reality, Nameless One.       ----  The Mother

GRACE.

At the very moment when everything seems to go from bad to worse
it is then that we must make a Supreme act of faith and know that the
Grace will never fail us.
