Mother As I Saw Her – Swami Saradeshananda
The Mother’s Way of Teaching – 07
Devotees of varying social standing and power of understanding came to the Mother. Some made pranams to her and recited invocations before her as the Adyasakti, the Power of the Lord that creates and sustains the universe. There were others without any such theological understanding but knew her merely as their ‘Mother’, their protector in this life and hereafter, whose grace freed them from all causes of fear. All of them, the knowing ones and the ignorant, were alike in the Mother’s eyes; for she knew that they were all calling on her according to their individual capacity. Some may call the same person ‘Ba’ and some ‘Pa’ according to the development of their capacity to speak.
