December 14, 1968

(Mother reads three different versions of a message

 she wants to give for the opening of the School.

Then she selects the first one.)

They came in succession. It's the experience I had at that moment:

"When one lives in the Truth, one is above all

 contradictions."

The other two came afterwards:

"Living in the Truth means being above all

 contradictions."

Then:

"He who lives in the Truth is above all contra

dictions and all oppositions."

It's completely silent here (gesture to the forehead); I just turn (gesture upward) and wait, and I think what comes first is the purest, that is, the least mixed with activities; afterwards, it's as if here in the atmosphere it got mixed with mental vibrations.

I have received a line from P.L.

Oh!

He was about to leave for Spain to do an "opinion poll" about

 the Church reforms, and he just wrote me: "I have had a

 terrible experience, which, with Sweet Mother, ended happily.

On my return from Spain I will tell you what happened."[[See further the conversation of December 25. ]]

(Then Mother listens to Satprem reading another

 Playground Talk of 1953.)

What year is it?

1953.

Oh, how I chattered! (Mother laughs) Anyway ...

But in fact it wasn't chatter: you were raining Force on those

 children. That was it.

It's intended for children.

Yes, but there was all that Force you were pouring on them....

That's what they're now lacking. [[Mother poured that Force during eight years of Playground Talks.... ]]

(Mother remains silent)
