Mother As I Saw Her – Second Part
Swami Saradeshananda
11. The Mother’s way of Life – 7
Was the Mother’s running of her household in this way the same as what the Master described as entering into the life of the world with the knowledge of Advaita tied to the hem of one’s cloth?
Anybody who had the good fortune of being with the Mother for any length of time, would have witnessed how she did all her work untiringly and lived in the world without any self-centredness and external compulsions. The only compulsion she felt was the desire to relieve the sufferings of all. We have already narrated many instances depicting the Mother as an ideal Karma Yogin. We shall cite a few more incidents revealing this aspect of her character.
