Holy Mother By Swami Nikhilananda: 257

Chapter 11 – Radhu : 088

Through the channel of Radhu, Holy Mother demonstrated the ideal of a karma-yogi as described in the Bhagavad Gita. In this scripture, the Gospel of Hinduism, the Lord has said that the embodied soul cannot cease from activity. The body cannot survive without work. The seeker performs action for the purification of the mind. And the enlightened soul works for the preservation of the social order.

Holy Mother remained inwardly unaffected by the pain and suffering inflicted by Radhu and her other relatives, because she was in constant touch with the fount of bliss. This bliss she easily transmitted to her devotees. Once she said to a disciple: ‘The vision of God is in the palm of my hand; I can see Him whenever I like.”
