Mother’s Symbol

Words of the Mother

Last time I told you I was looking for the twelve attributes (Mother takes out a sheet of paper). Here they are, someone found this.

1. Sincerity

2. Humility

3. Gratitude

4. Perseverance

5. Aspiration

6. Receptivity

7. Progress

8. Courage

9. Goodness

10. Generosity

11. Equanimity

12. Peace

The first eight concern the attitude towards the Divine, and the last four towards humanity.

And we also found a text from Sri Aurobindo (with a colored chart of the twelve petals):

Centre and four powers, white. The twelve all of different color in three groups: top group red, passing to orange towards yellow. Next group, yellow passing through green towards blue. And third group, blue passing through violet towards red. If white is not convenient, the center may be gold (powder). – Sri Aurobindo, March 20, 1934
