Throb of Nature

Throb of Nature by Mona Sarkar is a spiritually rich compilation of conversations with the Mother (Mirra Alfassa), focusing on the significance of flowers and nature in the spiritual practice at the Sri Aurobindo Ashram. The compiler has collected his notations on Nature and flowers from his numerous conversations with the Mother. The notations are organised into chapters such as “Flowers Have Their Own Language”, “Aspiration”, “Transformation”, “Promptings of Nature”, and “The Universal Game”.  Each chapter begins with a picture of a flower with the significance given by the Mother, along with her comment. In these conversations, the Mother reveals her identity with the powers and forces of universal Nature, how to communicate in joy and harmony with this subtle world, and the ways in which she used flowers to transmit to her disciples the vibrations and spiritual qualities carried by each flower.
