Namaste,

 

Holy Mother's web site.

 

Once there, my I suggest http://www.srisarada.org/vedanta/ooks.html

for a list of books about Holy Mother.

 

I believe " Holy Mother " by Swami Nikhilananda will be helpful in

describing the culture as it was written with the western reader in

mind. Swami Tapasyaananda's " Life and Teachings " is also very good..

Best wishes in your study.

 

Respectfully yours in Mother,

Jayanti
