Ramakrishna Mission Kalyani

I AM THE MOTHER OF THE WICKED,

AS I AM THE MOTHER OF THE VIRTUOUS.

NEVER FEAR.

WHENEVER YOU ARE IN DISTRESS,

SAY TO YOURSELF

‘I HAVE A MOTHER’

HOLY MOTHER 

GOD IS IN ALL MEN,
BUT ALL MEN ARE NOT IN GOD;
THAT IS WHY WE SUFFER

                        Sri Ramakrishna

TAKE UP AN IDEA, DEVOTE YOURSELF,

STRUGGLE IN PATIENCE,

AND THE SUN WILL RISE.

                          Swami Vivekananda
