Publisher’s Note
Prayers and Meditations consists of extracts from the
Mother’s spiritual diaries. Most of them are from the
period 1912 to 1917. The 313 prayers reproduced here
were selected by the Mother for publication. Written in
French, they appear here in English translation.
A small collection of prayers — about one-fifth of the
total — was brought out in English in 1941. Sri Auro-
bindo translated some of those prayers himself and, in the
other cases, revised translations made by disciples. These
prayers wholly or partly translated by Sri Aurobindo are
marked in this volume with an asterisk (*).
Details about publication are provided in the Note
on the Text.
