Abstract
We find a supersymmetrization of the Bianchi type-IX cosmology in term s of Ashtekar's new variables. This provides a framework for connectin g the recent results of Graham and those of Ryan and Moncrief for quan tum states of this model. These states are also related to the states obtained particularizing supergravity for a minisuperspace. Implicatio ns for the general theory are also briefly discussed.
