MIRA BAI

When Mira's mother-in-law saw her spending all the nights in the temple, she tried to dissuade her.

She said, "Daughter, you are now a housewife, you should stay at home at nights and not go out!"

Mira did not listen to her. She continued to spend the nights in the temple before the idol. Whenever her mother-in-law took her to task for not listening to her, she cried.

One day, her mother-in-law told Mira sternly: "Daughter! You must give up the worship of Krishna.  Our family deity is  Gauri. You must worship her hereafter!"
