The Mother

Revelation of the Mother's Coming

Q: When Ramakrishna was doing Sadhana, Mother was on earth physically for the first eight years of her childhood, from 1878 to 1886. Did he know that Mother had come down? He must have had some vision at least of her coming, but we do not read anywhere definitely about it.

And when Ramakrishna must have been intensely calling Mother, she must have felt something at that age.

A: In Mother's childhood's visions she saw myself whom she knew as "Krishna"―she did not see Ramakrishna.

It was not necessary that he should have a vision of her coming down as he was not thinking of the future nor consciously preparing for it. I don't think he had the idea of any incarnation of the Mother.

I don't say on what plane X is, but his method is that of Adwaita Knowledge and Moksha―so there is no necessity for him to recognise the arrival of the Divine. Y's Guru was a bhakta of the Divine Mother, believed in the dynamic side of existence, so it was quite natural for him to have the revelation of the coming of the Mother.

X is very much of a Vedantist. He does not believe in what we believe or in the descent etc. At the same time he himself had experiences in which the Mother interfered in a visible free material form and prevented him from doing what he intended to do.
