Idol of Holy Mother in the temple
|
The temple of Holy Mother at the Ramakrishna Math Mumbai, is unique.
Firstly, it is only one of the two temples (the other being at Jayrambati, birthplace of Holy Mother) – wherein Holy Mother is worshipped as deity through an idol.
The premises where Mother's Idol is worshiped was the main temple of Sri Ramakrishna till 1965 - when the present building was constructed.
After the main worship was shifted to the new temple, there was a demand from the devotees that the sanctity and peace of the original temple be maintained through appropriate means.

This led to the installation of Holy Mother's Idol in the old temple and just as the devotees sought, the sanctity and peace continues to remain in the premises. |
