Holy Mother By Swami Nikhilananda: 304

Chapter 13 – In the Role of Teacher : 023

Holy Mother knew the spiritual capacity of her disciples. One day Yogin-ma said the devotees, in front of the Mother: ‘Mother may show us very much love, but still it is not as intense as the Master’s. What compassion and love he showed for his disciples! We saw that with our own eyes. Words cannot describe it.’ ‘What is there wonder at?’ the Mother replied. ‘He accepted only a few chosen disciples and those too after much testing. And to me he pushed a whole row of ants.’ How true are the words of a great householder disciple of Sri Ramakrishna: ‘Mother is more kind than Father!’1 (1 Referring to Sri Ramakrishna)
