5. On Three Works of the Mother

Fragment ID: 20220

Who are the “grands êtres Asouriques” mentioned by the Mother who had taken birth in human bodies claiming to serve the Divine? Since they are “grands” they must have been well-known persons. I can see only one – Rasputin. Hitler, Stalin and Co. do not claim to serve the Divine.

Mother was not speaking of these but of others met by herself. But “grands” here does not mean great in the worldly sense, that is incarnating in famous people, but powerful in the vital world.
