MAA SAYINGS...
Recorded by Swami Arupananda
Disciple: Were you at Dakshineswar when the Master’s mother passed away (27th February, 1875)?
Mother: No, I was ill at Jayrambati then. I had returned after suffering for a year at Dakshineswar. For treatment of the spleen trouble, I went to the Siva temple at Badanganj where it was singed. After I had visited Dakshineswar twice or thrice, Captain (Viswanath Upadhyay) gave Sal wood. Sambhu Babu constructed a cottage for me near the place where now Ramlal stays. At night, a high tide in the Ganga carried away one of the logs. Hriday scolded me saying, “You are ill-starred!”, and so on. The Captain, unmindful of the loss, sent another log.
Shree Maa…
