Recollections

R1. 2024-0117 E-mail from Catherine Paillusseau to CCT: "On the occasion of Shri Mataji's visit in Paris, April 18, 1980, we went to picnic in the gardens of the Château de Versailles. Shri Mataji has put Her attention for a long time on this place and on the events that took place there.
As this day was my birthday, I had the immense joy of receiving from Mother this charming heart-shaped porcelain box."

R2. Extract from the 2025-1000 pdf file 'Lille September 1980' of Catherine Paillusseau: "On April 18th, we went to visit the Château de Versailles and have a picnic in the gardens. Shri Mataji spoke about the fact that the French Revolution was not a good thing because it was easier for the Divine to work out things through a king rather than through a president appointed temporarily by the people."
