...I don't know why they wanted me to read this—it's something quite terrible... quite terrible.

For December 1st they've organized an entire performance at the Theater, with recitation, dances, tableaux vivants, to illustrate it [The Hour of God].

When things happen in that way, I always take them as organized by the Divine for the general progress. Rarely does there come a precise indication: "No." When it's "no," it's categorical. But I always see (Mother draws in the air movements of forces) that things move with a very supple movement: they seem to be heading here (gesture to the left), but it's in order to go there (gesture to the right); they seem to be going this way (curve to the right), but it's in order to get there (gesture to the left)—all the time.
