The Mother to Michel
and about the 'Meditations on Savitri' movie series:
"I want to give you special blessings for this work and
will always guide you. It is my legacy for the world."
(Then The Mother went into a long trance and gave her special blessings to Michel, expressing her certainty that he will accomplish the work according to her vision, as she sees in him the soul and the talent for doing it. Later she said that she would like the Savitri movies to be in widescreen with stereo sound and brilliant colors so that they can be projected in big scale. For the'Mediations on Savitri' movie series The Mother gave Michel and Filmaur Multimedia in Germany the unrestricted right to use all her Savitri recordings and music for producing and promoting the 'Meditations on Savitri' movie series. She explicitly wanted the work to be done and organized by Michel and Filmaur Multimedia, Germany and no other person or company.)
"The Mother gave me this photograph signed by her, explaining that her living presence and her blessings are in it and with me and that through them I will always receive help, guidance and protection in my work for her."
