Sister Parvati story, Direct Disciple of Paramhansa Yogananda ~~ “DIVINE MOTHER IS MY ONLY NECESSITY"~~
Sister told a story: The night before she was to leave for India she
was in her room doing last minute packing. She suddenly remembered she
had forgotten to purchase an item that was absolutely essential for her
trip. It was truly a necessity she could not do without. But it was too
late to do anything about it. After fretting about it
for a while she decided that she could not afford to worry any more.
Inwardly she left it in the hands of Divine Mother. She went on packing
her things, and put the issue out of her mind.
A while later
there was a knock at her door. It was another nun. The nun said she knew
how busy Sister was and apologized for bothering her. But, she said,
for some reason she had felt compelled to come to her room to bring her
something she thought Sister might need for her trip. The item was
exactly the one that Sister needed, to the last detail. Sister said when
she got to India she wrote on an index card and kept it on her altar
during all her years in India: “Divine Mother is my only necessity.”
OM!
