Mother As I Saw Her – Swami Saradeshananda
Taking of the Mother’s Foot-Print – 03
The son came to know later on that the Mother had got the impression taken by Nalini-Didi. One day when he met her, Nalini-Didi said to him curtly, “What a colour you had brought – red like blood! What would people say on seeing it! That was why we had to use ‘alta’ instead of the colour.” The son’s heart was full of joy for getting the impressions of the feet; so this rebuke was sweet to his ears.
