The Mother held a Wednesday evening class with the students, teachers, and sadhaks of the Ashram. She began by reading out a passage from one of her works and then, speaking in French, she commented on the passage and answered questions from the group gathered around her. Some of these talks were noted down by disciples and the rest were tape-recorded; all were published in English under the rubric "Questions and Answers". They cover topics as diverse as sleep and dreams, the psychic being, music and art, determinism and freedom, and religion and the spiritual life.
