Once a fallen woman came to Udbodhan House and fell at the Mother’s feet. Holy Mother embraced her and said: “Come to me, my daughter. Now you have realized what sin is. You are repentant. I shall initiate you with a mantra. Offer yourself at the feet of the Master. Don’t be afraid.”
Some aristocratic women from Baghbazar, including Krishnabhavani, Balaram’s wife, heard that the Mother had given shelter to a woman of questionable character, so they decided to stay away. Krishnabhavani told this to Golap-ma, and she reported it to Holy Mother. She remarked: “Those who have taken refuge in me will come here. What can I do if someone’s coming to me stops other’s coming?” Later Krishnabhavani came to the Mother and apologized for her wrong judgement.
