Reminiscences of The Holy Mother!!!
SWAMI GAURISWARANANDA - 12
Mother had an eye for detail. One day I was laying out sal leaves to serve as plates for taking food. After having shaken them and sprinkled a little water on them, Mother broke in, “Oh, no! My boys will be having their food; wash the leaves well, else the dust will remain. When I was well I used to wash the leaves one by one and wipe them with a piece of cloth.” Another day when I was placing the asanas at mealtime, from the veranda adjoining her room she observed, “They are not placed straight.” Even after I had rearranged them a little, she commented, “Not straight yet.” I being confused as to what was amiss, she came herself and placed them correctly. Then I saw that all the asanas had been placed parallel to each other, equidistant, their fronts presenting a straight line.
