This book, originally published in Bengali, presents a series of vignettes from the author's early childhood in Bengal, her first visit to Pondicherry, and her many years of life in the Ashram, where she settled in 1944. The stories convey how a young woman learned some essential truths of spiritual life, while communicating the warmth and intensity of the intimacy she and her companions shared as they matured under the Mother's guidance. Through these reminiscences the author describes the significance of her life in the Ashram and evokes many aspects of the Mother's personality.
