December 27, 1971
(Sujata’s visit to Mother.)
A disciple in America had sent a cartoon published in an
American newspaper showing Bangladesh (“East Pakistan”)
bloody and gored by the horns of a furious Indian “sacred
cow,” equipped with Soviet weapons. When the drawing was
shown to Mother by Sujata, she angrily rejected it, sweeping it
off her knees: “Take it away.” Then, a few moments later, she
asked for the drawing back, took a pen and wrote across the
drawing: “This is disgustingly untrue,” the way one performs
an occult act to destroy or neutralize something.
