In February a group of Chinese visitors requested a lecture on Sri Aurobindo and Mother. Some of them have read Chinese translations of Mother and Sri Aurobindo’s books by scholar Hu Hsu, who lived in the Ashram. Loretta gave two talks and answered their questions. The Chinese interpreter was Anandi Zhang. The first talk is on the lives of Mother and Sri Aurobindo, and their realizations of the new consciousness that the world now feels, and the work they did to help mankind receive this consciousness. The visitors have a small place of spiritual practice at the foot of the Zhongnan Mountains, home to monks, nuns and other spiritual seekers since ancient times. Their aspiration is that more and more people in China will have access to Sri Aurobindo and Mother’s teachings and will be inspired to do the Yoga of Transformation. They hope to bring back to China the energy and blessings they feel here.
