From that day\u00a0 the physical presence of the Mother gave me a total sense of security. She gave a perfect stability to my material existence. I have passed through many long periods of hesitation and great inner difficfulties which is quite natural in any process of yoga but this sense of utter protection and stability never left me even in my darkest days. She was the visible symbol of absolute assurance. Even if I did anything wrong I knew I would be protected .In reality I had very little physical contact with the Mother\u00a0 but in my inner consciousness She was always there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But when She left Her body in nov 1973 it was as if I lost the plank under my feet. That sense of absolute security and stability which came from Her physical presence disappeared . I felt like an orphan without parents or a home. Though in my consciousness\u00a0 She was fully present always,\u00a0 though I met Her often in dreams,\u00a0 though I felt how She helped protected and guided our life in a very material way nothing satisfied me . That most reassuring physical protection was absent as if I was at the mercy of the world. This physical separation created a searing despair in the being especially in the body . The soul remained unconsoled even with the constant perception of the One.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Recently, something magnificent has\u00a0 happened, I have found the same reassuring physical presence of the Mother as concrete as before, perhaps even more. I do not have to seek Her nor imagine Her because there She is with Her most reassuring unveiled Presence. That lost sense of protection and stability has come back once again, Nothing can go wrong for She is there more concrete, real and tangible than this material universe. I am no longer an orphan, I have found my Mother<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #0000ff;\">Niranjan Guha Roy<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Octobre 1983 I came to the Ashram in june 1946 finally to stay.
