Mother's Agenda (French original: L'Agenda de Mère) is a 13 volume, 6,000 page, record of Mirra Alfassa, known as "The Mother", which narrates her experiences in her yoga of the cells (or transformation of the body's consciousness).[1]
Publication[edit]
Selected transcripts were approved, and in a few instances revised, by the Mother, and these appeared regularly from February 1965 to April 1973 in The Bulletin of Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education under the headings "Notes on the Way", and "A Propos".[2] They were later compiled and published as vol 11 of the Collected Works of the Mother.
After the Mother's passing away in 1973, Satprem edited the tapes (which were in French), which were published as L'Agenda de Mère from 1978 to 1982 by Institut de Recherches Évolutives (Institute for Evolutionary Research), founded in Paris by Satprem.
The English translation appeared from 1978 to 2000, nine volumes of which were translated and another two co-translated by Michel Danino.[3]
In the 1990s this English translation started appearing on the Internet. On 21 December 2000, the Institut de Recherches Évolutives's General Secretary Micheline Etévenon contacted all webmasters hosting Mother's Agenda asserting IRE's copyright.
The Agenda has since been translated from French into Russian by Igor Savenkov and into Chinese by Xu Fancheng.[citation needed]
Reception[edit]
Titlebaum calls The Agenda, "a work of literary magic" in which according to him, one enters a reality radically different from the Western secular-naturalist approach, and is confronted with descriptions of occult and mystical experiences based on a radically different worldview to the current "post-modern" one.[4]
