After some time Yogin-ma also met the Holy Mother, and the two were immediately drawn to one another. They were about the same age. The Holy Mother once said, “Yogin is my Jaya [an attendant of the goddess Durga] — my friend, companion, and attendant.”9 Yogin-ma described her relationship with the Holy Mother: “Whenever I went to Dakshineswar the Holy Mother would take me into her confidence, tell me her secrets, and seek my counsel. I used to visit Dakshineswar every seven or eight days, sometimes spending the night there. Then the Holy Mother would not let me sleep anywhere else, but would ask me to sleep in her room in the nahabat.
“Sometime after my first visit the Holy Mother left for her country home. I stood on the bank of the Ganges and watched her departure, waiting until the boat was no longer visible. After that I returned to the nahabat and wept bitterly. The Master, on his way back from the Panchavati, noticed me crying, and after returning to his room he sent for me. ‘Her leaving caused a great deal of pain for you,’ he said tenderly. He then began to console me by recounting the marvellous spiritual experiences he had during his days of Tantric sadhana. When the Holy Mother returned after about a year and a half, he told her: ‘That girl with nice large eyes, who comes here frequently, loves you very much. She wept a lot at the nahabat when you left for home.’ Mother replied: ‘Yes, I know her very well. Her name is Yogin.’” (Source: They Lived with God)
