[Swami Vivekananda addressing assembled devotees during his visit to Holy Mother at Baghbazar, Calcutta, 1897]:
“Go and prostrate before the Mother, but don’t touch her feet. She is so gracious, so tender and affectionate, that when touches her feet she then readily draws unto and takes upon herself all the misery and suffering of the hapless soul, out of her infinite grace and unbounded love and compassion for one and all; thereby she has to suffer herself silently for other’s sake.
Go slowly one by one and prostrate before her. Pray to her and ask for her blessing from the bottom of your heart, with all sincerity, and without verbal expression.
She is ever in a superconscious state and understands everybody’s mind.”
- ‘Sri Sarada Devi and Her Divine Play’ by Swami Chetanananda, P198
