Mother As I Saw Her – Swami Saradeshananda
Events after her Passing Away – 6
When the Mother’s body was brought to the Belur Math at noon on the day following her demise, it was found that her face was still effulgent, though it had been carried a considerable distance in the hot sun. It was observed to persist till the body was placed on the pyre. And those who had the good fortune of touching her feet, found that they were still soft. Decorated with flowers, those two feet of hers looked beautiful and charming like land-lotuses.
