Mother As I Saw Her – Swami Saradeshananda
Expressions of motherly Love – Feeding of Devotees – 03

There were two sons of the Mother who were boyhood friends and very much attached to each other. This was well-known to the Mother. If perchance they got together at the Mother’s place, and if there were not many there at the time, she would sit them near her door and put a plate of edibles between them. The Mother would stand there leaning against the door frame, watching the boys eating. As they ate, the Mother would put more helpings of this or that delicacy into the plate until they had eaten their fill. The young men, too, would completely forget themselves, and feel like little children on being fed by the Mother.
