These talks of 1955 were spoken by the Mother in French and appear here in English translation. All of them were tape-recorded. Passages from some of the talks were published in the French original together with an English translation in issues of the Bulletin of Sri Aurobindo International Centre of Education from 1955 to 1960. The first five months of talks were serialised in the Bulletin from November 1978 to November 1980. In 1979 all the talks were brought out in English under the title Questions and Answers 1955 as Volume 7 of the Collected Works of the Mother (first edition). In that volume previous Bulletin translations were slightly revised and the remaining talks translated for the first time. The present volume has the same text as the first edition of the Collected Works, apart from some minor revisions of the translation.
