| On the occasion
of her birth centenary that was observed recently all over India, much light was thrown on
her life and her great ness as a saint.Some of the tributes paid to her memory are very
revealing. I quote a few below after first giving an extract from Vivekananda's letter: - "Without Sakti there is no regeneration for the world Mother (Sarada) has been born to revive that wonderful Sakti in India; and making her the nucleus, once more will Gargis and Maitreyis be born into the world.... Hence it is her Math I want first.... Brother, before proceeding to America, I wrote to mother to bless me. Her blessing came and at one bound I cleared the ocean...." (Pp. 416-17, completes Works of Swami Vivekananda, Vol. VII). Swami Brahmanand says, ".... There is no difference between Shri Ramakrishna and Mother. Through Mother's grace attainment of liberation becomes easy." Swami Adbhutananda mentions a fact, which is very significant: "Immediately after establishing the Math, Swamiji (Viveka- nanda) installed there the dust of Mother's feet, which is being worshipped in the Belur Math even today…." Swami Yoga- nanda attests to that she was a great Yogini: "At
Brindavan.... One day her companions found her absorbed in deep Samadhi.... Mother seemed
to come down to the ordinary sense plane (after repetition of Sri Ramakrishna's name in
her ear) .... Tadatniya-Bhava was common with her.... She remained self-forgetful for
hours together."IX IX. Paramahansa Sri Ramakrishna by R.R. Diwakar, Bharatiya Vidya Dhavan, Bombay, 1956, pp. 166-166 |
