Sarada Devi, popularly known as the Holy Mother, was the spiritual consort of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahansa. This book shows how a simple village girl, who had no formal education, had not read any religious scriptures and had not been to any teacher (Guru) for spiritual guidance, achieved the divine status of 'Mother'. Delineating the purpose and significance of her life, it describes in detail her marriage with Sri Ramakrishna, her worshipping as a Goddess by her own husband, her breaking of caste barriers, and shackles of age-old social customs, her removal of pseudo-religious taboos, and her emphasis on female education. Her contribution towards the establishment and development of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission has also been discussed elaborately.
