Holy Mother By Swami Nikhilananda: 268
Chapter 12 – Spiritual Ministry : 011
Some of Holy Mother’s disciples were impressed by her motherly solicitude, some by her ability as a teacher to dispel their doubts, and some by her unshakable reassurance regarding their ultimate salvation, which can be given only by Divinity. But these features must not be compartmentalized. Whenever she appeared as mother, one saw behind her motherhood the power of a teacher, the transmitter of spiritual wisdom. Again, when she acted as teacher, she was not aloof or severe; she attracted her disciples by her motherly love. Finally, her divine nature supplied the foundation of the other two.
