To know is good, to live is better, to be that is perfect. - The Mother
24. April 2012

24th April is the day of the Mother's final arrival at Pondicherry in 1920. It is celebrated in the Ashram as a Darshan day.

A card with the Mother's picture and a beautiful prayer from the Mother, specially needed in the present situation, was distributed in the Ashram on this occasion:

"O Lord, Thou hast decided to test the quality of our faith and to pass our sincerity on Thy touch stone.

Grant that we come out greater and purer from the ordeal."
- The Mother




O Herr, Du hast Dich entschieden, die Stärke unseres Glaubens zu erproben und unsere
Aufrichtigkeit auf Deinen Prüfstein zu legen.
Gewähre uns, dass wir größer und reiner aus dieser Prüfung hervorgehen.
Die Mutter
