MAA SAYINGS…
Recorded by Swami Arupananda
When a disciple told Maa that some people are not happy that monks of Ramakrishna Order are engaged in so many works – Sevashramas and dispensaries, selling books, keeping accounts and also referred to Master never undertaking such activities:
Mother: You must pay no heed to those who talk in that manner. What will you do day and night if you are not engaged in work? Can one practise meditation and Japa for twenty-four hours? You referred to the Master. His case was different. Mathur used to supply him with proper diet. You are able to get your food because you are doing some work. Otherwise you would have to roam from door to door begging for a morsel of food. Perhaps you would fall ill. Besides, where are people today to give alms to the Sadhus? Never pay any heed to such words. Things will go on as the Master directs. The Math will be run on these lines. Those who cannot adjust themselves will go away.
Shree Maa…
(Gospel of The Holy Mother - p. 129-130)
Om Namah Sri Bhagavate Ramakrishnaya!!!
