The Mother’s mission is so definitely outlined in the Prayers of between 1912 and 1914

It was Sri Aurobindo who first fixed upon the creative Supermind as the goal of human evolution and laboured to call down and canalize its all-achieving Force for the birth of a new race of humanity, the race of Gnostic supermen…

But in order that this emergence may be complete and securely established on earth, it is essential, as a pre-condition, that Matter should be transmuted into the luminous substance of the divine existence from which it is derived…

Physical transformation by means of the authentic supramental force is, therefore, the crux of the mission of Sri Aurobindo’s life…

But it is very interesting that the same ideal had been the shaping truth and realizing force in the Mother’s life even when she was in France and knew absolutely nothing of Sri Aurobindo and his thoughts…

Her Prayers & Meditations, in which she has transcribed some of her experiences, bear surprising testimony to the essential identity which had existed between her ideal and that of Sri Aurobindo even before she met him in person on the 29th March, 1914. We cannot account for this identity by deriving it from the mystical traditions of the West…
