To\r\nthe old people I have often said, &quot;Always smile. Mother has taught us how\r\nto smile in all circumstances.&quot; Well, that is the natural gift of the\r\nyoung. A smile makes your life\'s journey smooth. In no other way can you remove\r\nso successfully the obstacles that beset you. And also that is the lever to\r\nlift up your consciousness – it has a mysterious power that automatically\r\nrelieves you of much of the burden of life, lightens you and leads you into a\r\nhigher sphere. For smile is a divine quality. Next to Happiness, the natural virtue\r\nof a child-consciousness is Freedom.

I will tell you of a dream, or a\r\nvision that I had sometime ago. It was an <span class=GramE>ashram,</span> I\r\nsay an ashram for it was not quite like our ashram although there was a great\r\nsimilarity between the two. In some respects it was like our ashram and in\r\nother respects somewhat unlike. First of all the whole ashram was in one place,\r\na consolidated organisation, not houses here and there scattered about: there\r\nwere no buildings or houses belonging to other people or other organisations,\r\nalso the buildings were beautiful to look at and the general lay-out artistic,\r\nbut all the activities we have were there. The school was there, the playground\r\nwas there, the library also, but all in an orderly arrangement. The Mother was\r\nalso <span class=GramE>there,</span> she was going from place to place,\r\nobserving all and speaking to people. Among the people, curiously, some I\r\nseemed to recognise, some of those even who are here now, there were many\r\nstrangers from other countries, a good many of them. Regarding those who are\r\nhere now and whom I seemed to recognise there also, the impression is rather\r\nvague and I cannot name them. But some of those who were here and passed away I\r\nrecognised very well, they had almost the same face and features – but in a\r\nnew, fresh and younger form. They were active and handsome young men, young\r\nwomen – I remember Sri Aurobindo quoting from the Rigveda: The Vedic Rishi\r\nspeaks of a happy herd of cows grazing in green fields; the Rishi adds: even\r\nthose among them that were old have become young now. The cow represented for\r\nthe Rishi the light, the <span class=GramE>sun\'s</span> ray, the purity of\r\nconsciousness. Perhaps the image came from the actual life of the Rishis of\r\nthat time, the cattle they reared, the domestic animals about them, the natural\r\nscenery around them, and all that was an important\r\n<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;\r\nmso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<span\r\nlang=EN-GB style=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;\'>Page –\r\n105<o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<div class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:12.0pt;\r\nmso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\r\n\r\n<hr size=2 width=\"100%\" align=center>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span class=GramE><span\r\nlang=EN-GB>part of their ordinary daily life. A\r\nwhole herd of cattle all white is a beautiful picture. Even so there was\r\nsomething in the atmosphere of the ashram which gave it a special quality, it\r\nwas clear pure, limpid and transparent, there was a strange luminosity in it,\r\nand it was a very happy atmosphere. While you are there, you feel free and at\r\nease and there were no petty feelings that we have here in the normal life of\r\nthe world, no anger, no jealousy, no selfishness, no ugliness: there was a\r\nhappy coordination of all persons and things.</span></span></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:12.95pt;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span\r\nlang=EN-GB>My feeling is that this ashram that I saw was in fact the inner\r\nreality of our ashram here, that inner ashram which is within us all; what we\r\nsee at present is the outer form, the material form which is a good deal\r\ndeformed and even falsified in many ways. Indeed that inner ashram has <span\r\nclass=GramE>an other</span> worldly atmosphere of its own, an atmosphere of rarified\r\nheights. I have told you very often that those who are here are fortunate, they\r\nbreathe this atmosphere and in spite of their faults and foibles, and no matter\r\nwhat they do, they are in contact with something of the inner beauty and\r\nfragrance. I do not know whether you have heard what Mother said more than\r\nonce, that all the children here, when they live here for sometime, imbibe and\r\ncarry a new atmosphere. And she could recognise a person from a distance, even\r\nfrom a great distance, not by his face or physical features but by the\r\natmosphere he carried that he belonged to the ashram, very different from the\r\natmosphere an outsider normally carries. It is an atmosphere or aura made of\r\nhappiness and purity and luminosity. All the ashram children are surrounded by\r\nit because it is Mother\'s own atmosphere. Therefore in these days, she used to\r\nsay, these children should not go out into the outside world even in their\r\nholidays, because, when they go out, she said, she had seen it, they lose this\r\nashram atmosphere and when they come back, they are coated with a thick layer\r\nof the mud of the ordinary world, and it took her a lot of time and trouble to\r\nrub and scrub and clean the dross upon the body, to made it shine as before.\r\nYou may remember here in this connection a Rama-krishna story about the\r\nsinners who went to the Ganges for a bath to purify themselves; they leave\r\ntheir sins on the shore or the sins leave them as they get into the Ganges\r\nwater, but the sins wait for them there on the bank and as soon as they come<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;\r\nmso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<span\r\nlang=EN-GB style=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;\'>Page –\r\n106<o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<div class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;mso-line-height-alt:\r\n10.05pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\r\n\r\n<hr size=2 width=\"100%\" align=center>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span class=GramE><span\r\nlang=EN-GB>back purified of their sins, the sins\r\nlying in wait jump on them again and the sinners remain always sinners.

But it is still\r\nthere, for the Mother is there as concrete as before although not as material<span\r\nclass=GramE>..</span> As I said, there are some who have passed away from here\r\nand some new faces also I found in this other inner ashram. These are already\r\nthere wholly in that ashram. But we who are here, we lead a double life as it\r\nwere: part of us is here, and part in that other inner ashram, as though one\r\nleg this side and the other on that side over the fence. In your better moments\r\nwhen you feel nice and free, when you are happy, when you are noble in spirit,\r\nyou come in contact with that inner ashram, you breathe that atmosphere. In\r\ndreams also, while asleep, apparently asleep, many of you must have seen the\r\nMother, must have had Sri Aurobindo\'s darshan. That is because you come in\r\ncontact with that inner atmosphere and enter into it. Now our task is to come\r\nmore and more in contact with that reality even in our waking moments, to be\r\nconscious of that which is nothing but the Mother\'s Presence. Half of you, your\r\ninner life is already there, bathing there in that luminous happy air. Only try\r\nto be conscious of that: if you are conscious of it even a little you will feel\r\nimmensely happy, feel that you are beautiful, that you are wise – when you feel\r\nthe touch of that inner ashram life. And instead of living entirely or mainly\r\nthe outer life of the ashram as at present you can turn this life into that\r\ninner life; and gradually reshape the present life in the mould of the inner\r\nlife. That is your duty, your task, particularly you who are students, boys and\r\n<span class=GramE>girls, that</span> is your central work – study and learning\r\nand all that is secondary. What you should do and what you can is to breathe a\r\nnew air, live in a better, more beautiful way. You can have this inner life, that\r\nis already there, this inner life not with much difficulty, for it is already\r\nthere, a collective inner life, which is <span class=GramE>so</span> beautiful\r\nas I say, filled with the fragrance of the Mother\'s Presence. It is a\r\ncollective life in which you all are not only brothers and sisters but one body\r\nand soul unified in the Mother\'s loving and living substance.<o:p>&nbsp;</o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:150%;\r\nmso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<span\r\nlang=EN-GB style=\'font-size:10.0pt;\'>Page – 107<o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<div class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;line-height:12.0pt;\r\nmso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\r\n\r\n<hr size=2 width=\"100%\" align=center>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span lang=EN-GB>That\r\ninner life you have to bring out into your body and all the external\r\nactivities.

Now, we all want to be good boys\r\nand good girls, is it not? Nobody wants to be a bad boy or a bad girl; but the\r\nproblem is how to be a good boyar girl and how not to be a bad boy or girl. In\r\nwhat does goodness consist? You all know the fine gesture that Mother taught us\r\nonce. Gesture means a physical movement – here a physical movement to control\r\nyourself; control, self-control is a very important, a very necessary item of\r\nour life. So the Mother once said; supposing you are very angry and you are\r\ninclined to give a blow to your comrade, then, the Mother\'s advice is, instead\r\nof stretching your hand towards your friend to give him a blow, put it in your\r\npocket; that is a fine gesture and it brings you a fine result: you feel a kind\r\nof release, a joy and peace, something new arid fresh comes into you. Your anger\r\nis gone, you are almost a new person. That is the lesson Mother taught us in\r\nthe matter of controlling ourselves. Usually we are moved by our impulses and\r\npassions particularly towards wrong things, then what you need is to check\r\nyourself, to control yourself. You must note that this control you are taught\r\nis self-control, that is to say, it is a thing not forced upon you, you are not\r\ncompelled to do it. You do it because of your own will, because you like to do\r\nit, because it is a fine gesture that attracts you. Usually the control is\r\nimposed upon you, out of fear of punishment, because of inconvenient or\r\nunpleasant results that might follow your loss of control. So instead of an\r\noutsider ruling you, you rule yourself voluntarily. The Mother adds also, illustrating\r\nthe point: to train, that is to say, to control a wild horse what you do is to\r\nput a bridle in its mouth and hold it and check it.

It means as a human being you have been given freedom; it is given\r\nso that you may choose yourself what is to be done and what is not to be done.\r\nInstead of being forced to do the right thing you are given the alternatives\r\neither to do the right or do the wrong, to choose between the two and choose\r\nthe right thing of your free will. Here in the Ashram, the Mother has said very\r\nmany times, you have been given almost infinite freedom. There are of course\r\ncertain rules and regulations; naturally when you live in society and have\r\ncommon work to do, there must be some rules and regulations. But the beauty\r\nhere is that even if you break a rule, even a very important rule, you are not\r\npunished. In other words, the choice is left to you, you have broken the rule,\r\nyou yourself find that you have broken the rule and then you try and rectify\r\nyourself, do the right thing. That is the true function of freedom – it is not\r\nfreedom to do anything you like but to discipline yourself, to follow the right\r\nof one\'s own free will. A discipline here is not inflicted upon you, you are\r\nnot ordered to do one thing and not to do another under pain of punishment, but\r\nyou find the truth by yourself and for yourself and you do it yourself, and you\r\nhave the joy, the pleasure of doing the right thing and the happiness of\r\ngrowing, maturing in your consciousness. You have infinite freedom here so that\r\nyou may grow in your consciousness infinitely.</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><span style=\"mso-spacerun:\r\nyes\">&nbsp;</span><span style=\'mso-tab-count:1\'>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; </span>I was speaking of\r\nself-control, self-discipline in your inner being, that is to say, with regard\r\nto your desires and impulses and feelings.

You control and\r\ndiscipline the body through physical exercises and these mean controlled and\r\nguided movements. You have to make these movements in a regular, persistent,\r\nordered and a neat way, it is the way to make your body strong and beautiful.\r\nAs by means of this physical discipline you secure a strong and beautiful body,\r\neven so by the inner discipline, by controlling your passions and impulsions\r\nyou build an inner body strong and beautiful.

In properly doing the physical exercises, you know, two things are\r\nneeded: first of all, doing the physical movements according to the rules, in\r\nother words, exercising the muscles in a given manner, and then along with it\r\nrelaxation. Relaxation and excercise should alternate. Relaxation restores the\r\nmuscles, brings repose to the system and serves as a kind of basic support. In\r\nthe field of the inner discipline, this relaxation corresponds to what I have\r\ncalled freedom.

Sometimes in the matter of inner discipline\r\nwhich means doing the right thing, you say, &quot;If I know the right thing to\r\ndo, then I can do it; to do the right thing I must know the right thing. If I\r\ndo not know the right thing, how can I do it?&quot; In the same way many\r\nexclaim: &quot;How to find God, how to see God? I do not know what God is. Then\r\nhow can I try to find Him?&quot; They say: &quot;First you must see God, then\r\nyou can believe.&quot; In fact this is not true. The truth is the other way\r\nround. The Mother says, &quot;If you are sincere, absolutely sincere and you\r\ntake the resolution that you will do the right thing whatever happens, then\r\nsurely the right thing will reveal itself to you.&quot; But the basic condition\r\nis that. Your resolve must be there, to do the right whenever it presents itself\r\nto you whatever the cost. Indeed you are not, a human being is not so obscure\r\nand inert as the appearance shows.

The very wavering thought that you\r\nmay not do it will obscure your path and the light will not be there. You have\r\nto believe, believe blindly, for you know what you believe in is not anything\r\nwrong or mistaken, for your urge is to welcome the truth, a sincere readiness\r\nto welcome the truth when it comes, this will bring forward the truth and if\r\nyou proceed, proceed in this way, welcoming the light every time it comes,\r\ndisregarding all other pulls and distractions, your welcoming becomes easier\r\nand warmer and the light grows brighter and brighter.

You have friends, comrades, companions,\r\nyou are in a group, in a company. Now it is of great importance to have the\r\nright company, you must have good companions, good comrades, good friends. That\r\nwill help you in ways more than one. In this connection I can do nothing better\r\nthan just to read out what the Mother says on the subject. She says: usually in\r\nyour ignorance and simplicity, foolish simplicity, you choose convenient\r\nfriends, that is to say, those who praise you, flatter you, who do not\r\ncontradict you even if you go the wrong way, even they encourage you in doing\r\nthe wrong thing in order to be friendly with you.

When you call him\r\nsincerely, he is always there to guide you, to sustain you and love you in the\r\ntrue way.&quot; – O p. cit.</font><span\r\nstyle=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt\'><![if !supportEmptyParas]>&nbsp;<![endif]><o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;mso-line-height-alt:\r\n8.4pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; line-height:150%; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>\r\n<span\r\nstyle=\'font-size:10.0pt;mso-bidi-font-size:12.0pt;\'>Page – 67<o:p></o:p></span></p>\r\n\r\n\r\n<div class=MsoNormal align=center style=\'text-align:center;mso-line-height-alt:\r\n8.4pt;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none\'>\r\n\r\n<hr size=2 width=\"100%\" align=center>\r\n\r\n</div>\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;line-height:150%;mso-pagination:\r\nnone;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>he had always his smile –\r\n“You have so forgotten yourselves, you do not think even of what you have come\r\nhere for (because we had all left our family, even our country and all worldly\r\nconsiderations); to be with you, to be one of you, I have made myself very\r\nsmall, I have cut myself so to say to your size to walk with you, to be on the\r\nsame level.

Sri Krishna, the Divine, became a very ordinary playmate of\r\ncowherd-boys and village maids and was one of them and with them, almost with\r\nno apparent difference. The Divine not merely as the Master, the Guru, the\r\nleader or the captain but as a loving playmate and comrade is a very\r\nextraordinary Indian conception of the Divine. Arjuna in his loving tenderness\r\nfor his friend Krishna almost forgot to respect him and. <span lang=EN-GB\r\nstyle=\'mso-ansi-language:EN-GB\'>honour</span> him, he could only embrace him.\r\nBut one day revelation came to him as to who his intimate friend and comrade\r\nreally was: he was dumbfounded and full of contrition and repentance for his\r\npast lapses. I may tell you Arjuna\'s state of mind in his own words – as stated\r\nin the Gita:</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:12.7pt;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><![if !supportEmptyParas]>&nbsp;<![endif]><o:p></o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'margin-left:1.0in;text-align:justify;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>For whatsoever\r\nI have spoken to Thee in rash vehemence, thinking of Thee only as my human\r\nfriend and companion, \'O Krishna, O Yadava, O Comrade,\' not knowing this Thy\r\ngreatness, in negligent error or in love, and for whatsoever disrespect was\r\nshown by me to Thee in jest, at play, on the couch and the seat and in the\r\nbanquet, alone or in Thy presence, O faultless One, I pray forgiveness from\r\nThee, the Immeasurable.¹</p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'margin-left:1.0in;text-align:justify;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'><![if !supportEmptyParas]>&nbsp;<![endif]><o:p></o:p></p>\r\n\r\n<p class=MsoNormal style=\'text-align:justify;text-indent:.25in;line-height:\r\n150%;mso-pagination:none;mso-layout-grid-align:none;text-autospace:none; margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0\'>However\r\nwhat I wanted to say is, the Mother is truly your mother and as truly your\r\nfriend and comrade.
