Swami Subodhananda

Swami Subodhananda

Swami Subodhananda was extremely devoted to Holy Mother. He visited Jayrambati in 1891 with Girish Chandra Ghosh and Swami Niranjanananda. In 1911 when Holy Mother visited Belur Math after her pilgrimage to South India, Swami Brahmananda arranged a grand reception for her. The shrine was decorated, and monks and devotees stood in line as Holy Mother walked slowly onto the monastery grounds. Brahmananda announced that no one should break the line and rush to take the dust of her feet. Suddenly, however, somebody came from behind the line, took the dust of Mother's feet and disappeared into the crowd. Amused, Brahmananda cried out:" Who is he? Catch him!" Everyone laughed, seeing Subodhananda's childlike nature.
