Guest guest Posted July 21, 1999 Report Share Posted July 21, 1999 Hello Everyone ! Swami Yogeshanada Hari Om ! It was on this day [July 21, 1920], that the Holy Mother was blessed with full integration into the Godhead. Here is a brief quote from the tiny book, entitled: " In the Company of the Holy Mother " [available at all Vedanta Centres] : Page 34-35 __________ Her final message to a bewildered, afflicted, and hate-torn world [this was only two years after the end of the Great War 1914-18], she gave five days before her death. To a weeping woman devotee she said, " Let me tell you something. If you want peace of mind do not look into others' faults. Rather look into your own. Learn to make the whole world your own. No one is a stranger, my child. The whole world is your own. " On Tuesday, July 21, 1920, at half past one in the morning she breathed heavily several times and entered into a deep samAdhi from which she never returned to conciousness of the physical world. Peace-eyed sleep settled over her body, ravaged by long illness, which now suddenly relaxed and gave off a celestial light. Many of her disciples were deceived by this light and thought for a time that she was still with them. The body, decorated with garlands and flowers, was taken to Belur Math, across the GangA, and cremated on a pyre of sandalwood. Now a white temple stands on the spot, in loving memory of her immaculate life. Another white temple has been erected over her birthplace at Jayrambati, from the top of which flies a flad emblazoned with the single word " Ma " , recalling to her devotees, from far and near, her words of reassurance: " I am the mother of the wicked, as I am the mother of the virtuous. Whenever you are in distress, just say to yourself, 'I have a mother'.
