________________ view, but the mother replied, "Oh learned man, I can understand if other persons talk like this because of attachment and love for the mortal body, but when you also say, so it is surprising. We expected that you will help us in performing our religious rites and prayers. Why should I worry for this unholy spiritual awareness and her faith in the power of the advanced soul, say God or the Almighty. The mother was now entering her old age while working continuously for the humanity. She passed away peacefully on 28 July 1977. The life of the Mother is the symbol of Jain culture. She was away from worldly pleasures and had accepted the path of renunciation by herself in spite of knowing that it was full of several difficulties. She remained in search of non-violence and truth till the end of her life. She was not only a merciful administrator but a strong penanceful nun. She kept herself engaged in achieving knowledge from all sides. She never wished to be honored by others, she was always available for the services to others. She was, thus, a silent and dedicated servant of humanity. She carried the voice of her age and the women of all religions, sects and beliefs shall take inspiration from the life of this enlightened mother. 132
