A French friend, Jean Herbert and his wife paid us a visit. They were with us for three days. They adapted themselves thoroughly to the simple and homely life of the Ashram, squatting on the floor and taking their meals. Ramdas used to talk to them freely on spiritual topics. Once he asked, whether peace was a condition of love, or the outcome of love, to which Ramdas replied definitely, "Peace is the outcome of love. You cannot have peace unless you have love". One day, Jean One day Mrs Herbert sat down on the mat on the floor in front of Mataji, and asked her to teach one Indian word. Mataji thought for a while, and taught her to pronounce the word "Prem". Mrs Herbert, who was gazing expectantly at Mataji, caught the word and repeated it thrice. At this time, Ramdas noticed, there was a thrill in the atmosphere. The camera clicked just at that moment.
