My Mother is the Supreme Mother

My ["birth"] mother is not my Mother.  My Mother is the Supreme Mother. You see, to manifest, I had to take a body. So, I just need the body, nothing else. And also, I took the body from My Will. Well, it is possible. This is true. You see, if you are born to somebody, there are certain karmic things that a person is connected with. I will talk a little bit about my mother and my parents also. In a previous life, they did lots of penance, and I promised them I would be born to them. That´s why I took birth. And I said I came by my own will. It is true.

Here is the unedited entire comments Swami made on this subject of his mother(s)...

Tthis response here actually stems from the Satsang Guruji gave in Scotland May 6 of 2012.

Question to Swami:
How do you feed a small baby if he is allergic to milk and cereal?
Edinburgh, Scotland, 6 May 2012

Then you don’t feed him with milk and cereal. Muesli, cereal. There can be lots of cereal in Russia? So it’s just vegetables then. There is soya milk, also. Soya cereal? Yes? How sad then, no milk.

Is mother’s milk considered as milk? Well, it is milk, but what I mean is, does the baby also get allergic with mother’s milk?
Translator: Ah, no, the mother has normal, but, uh...

SV: Ah, big baby you mean? That is okay. If my cousin would be, here he would tell you - this cousin, until he was 11 years old, he was drinking milk from his mother. It is funny.

So. You know, if the child is allergic to milk, I think only vegetables.

I don’t know, I never drank my mother’s milk, so I don’t know. Because my mother is not my Mother. My Mother is the Supreme Mother. You see, to manifest, I had to take a body. So, I just need the body, nothing else. And also, I took the body from my will.

You are thinking, "How is it possible?"
Audience: [laughter]
SV: Well it is possible. This is true. You see, if you are born to somebody, there are certain karmic things that person is connected with. I will talk a little bit about my mother, and my parents also.

In a previous life, they did lots of penance, and I promised them I would be born to them. That’s why I took birth. And I said I came by my own will. It is true. Because the families are very strict in the Hindu tradition, you know, we don’t mix up like the West. But I was born,... normally the child is born in nine months, no? I was born in seven. So, it is not like you understand. It’s just the will.

So that’s why I have said I didn’t drink milk. You can ask my mum. From the first day itself, I would vomit everything. So like this. My food was made from a cow! Gau Mata! She provides for me! -Swami Vishwananda

Inspiring message for me. Swami was born of their own will, not after nine months of pregnancy, just after seven. I was born normally, two months later. So, the decision was made incarnation exactly the same time. It is true that disciples always follow their beloved Guru.
