EXPRESSION

The power of expression comes by getting in touch with the inner source from which these things come.
THE MOTHER

For a certain state of consciousness there is not a word, not a gesture, not an action which does not express a deeper or higher reality, more lasting, more essential, more true; and once one has seen and felt this, everything takes on a meaning, and one sees more clearly how things ought to be organised, arranged so that a deeper truth may be expressed even better than it is at present.
THE MOTHER

The truest expression comes out of an absolute inner silence.
