She had a vision of Green Acre (an area in Eliot) as being a place where different philosophies and religions could find their own expressions. The Conference was an adventure in learning. Frank Sanborn, who was known to Swami Vivekananda and was an attendee, later wrote: ‘Indeed the chief fault of Green Acre—if fault it can be termed—is that such richness of opportunity for growth is offered that one cannot find moments sufficient to partake of it all.’1 Sarah Farmer invited both Swami Vivekananda and Dharmapala to the conference. Dharmapala could not attend because he had already left for India, but Swamiji did.
This article describes Swamiji at the Conference in a nutshell, and introduces two photographs of him with others that have escaped his biographical album.

Mother of All
I am going out on a limb to declare that Holy Mother Sri Sarada Devi is the real spirit behind the birth, growth, and success of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission.
'I Have Come to Help You in Your Chosen Path'
In the initial days of Holy Mother’s stay in Dakshineswar, when she was there for the first time, Sri Ramakrishna suddenly asked her by way of examining her: ‘Well my dear, have you come to drag me down to the worldly level?’ The Mother replied without a moment’s hesitation: ‘No. Why should I drag you to worldly ways? I have come to help you in your chosen path [Tomār ishṭa pathe sahājya korte eshechhi].’
Holy Mother in the World
Sri Sarada Devi, reverently and affectionately referred to as Holy Mother by those affiliated with the Ramakrishna Movement, lived from 1853 to 1920. She lived in the world but was not of the world.
