What I'm amazed at is Radhu's reaction after Mother passed away. The monks were trying to make arrangements to care for this "troublesome child" when Radhu basically says, "Why are you worried? Do you not know who my aunt was? She has done everything for me."

Thakur had indicated that Radhu was also a part of Mahamaya who had come to bind Maa to continue on her earthly journey for the sake of numerous sons and daughters... what an amazing lila of Thakur and Maa... Pranaam...

There is also the idea or understanding that an incarnation brings with him or her all the necessary characters to complete their play on earth. I've often thought that Judus was an important character in the Christian drama...
Had Mother's life been more "ideal", would she have been a role model?

That's so odd that you mention Judas. I have been thinking of Sri Ramakrishna's nephew, Hriday, who took such good care of Sri Ramakrishna for so long.
Thinking about Hriday makes Judas Iscariot more real to me, because I know how Sri Ramakrishna loved him
and how devoted Hriday was to the Master. Hriday made a terrible mistake and it affected him for the rest of his life. This reminds me of Judas Iscariot and it makes the scenario and the feeling around Jesus much more real to me.
