Sincerity, Openness and Transformation

Q: X says that the Mother told him that if the sincerity is perfect there would be transformation in a day. I do not understand how that could be possible―a long process of change and conversion compressed in a single day!

A: By sincerity Mother meant being open to no influence but the Divine's only. Now, if the whole being is sincere in that sense even to every cell of the body, what could prevent the most rapid transformation? People cannot be like that, however much the enlightened part of them may want to, because of the nature of the Ignorance out of which the ordinary prakṛti has been built―hence the necessity of a long and laborious working.
