Reminiscences of The Holy Mother!!!
REMINISCENCES OF HOLY MOTHER SARADA DEVI -25
KUMUD BANDHU SEN
When the Holy Mother came to Kolkata, it so happened that Swami Vivekananda too had to come back to Kolkata on a flying visit to meet his beloved disciple Maharaja Ajit Singh of Khetri (Rajputana). The Maharaja had come to Kolkata, with some other ruling chiefs of States, all of whom were bound for London, having been invited there to attend the celebrations in connection with the Diamond Jubilee of Queen Victoria’s reign. It was the Maharaja’s ardent wish that Swamiji should accompany him so that the enforced sea voyage and rest may restore him to health. He therefore, requested Swamij to come down to Kolkata so that they might travel together and consult doctors if necessary. Accordingly, Swamiji came from Darjeeling to Kolkata. As soon as Swamiji alighted at the Sealdah railway station, he was given a grand reception by the entire Marwari community of Kolkata who had mustered strong there. Swamiji received a welcome address from them. He was warmly received by all the business magnets of the metropolis, who were headed by Maharaja Ajit Singh. Many of them were landholders under the Maharaja and Swamiji was then the honoured guest as also the venerated preceptor of the Maharaja. Swamiji was taken directly to the residence of the Maharaja. Next day, in the afternoon, Swamiji and the Maharaja went together to Dakshineswar to visit the Kali temple there and in the evening, on their way back, both of them halted at the Alambazar Math and attended the evening arati in the Math shrine dedicated to the Master. They took prasad before leaving. Fortunately I had the privilege of being present at both the places during their visit, in the company of Master Mahashay, the celebrated author of the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna.

May we follow the spiritual path shown by Sri Ramakrishna, Sri Sarada Devi and Swami Vivekananda to reach God, the goal of our lives, and by His power help others also in their struggle to reach Him.
