This is one of the first comprehensive biographies of Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi in English. Swami Tapasyananda has incorporated all relevant biographical materials from various literary sources in Bengali, along with first-hand testimonials and information gathered from monks and women disciples of the Holy Mother. He has interpreted the life of the Holy Mother as the expression of the ideal of Divine Motherhood.
The original edition of this book, published in 1940, contained a chapter called Conversations which has been deleted from this 6th edition. This has been done because these Conversations, along with many others, have been included in the book The Gospel of the Holy Mother (ISBN 8178230011) This 6th edition has, however, included an additional forty pages of new material discovered since the book's original publication. We hope this book will help readers and devotees acquaint themselves with her holy life.
