Mother Teresa:

with sad face I don't want to goto the poor 

World Bank President Robert McNamara was the first to recommend Mother Teresa's name for the Nobel Prize.

The World Bank lends billions of dollars to governments around the world to alleviate poverty, but it also recognizes that human relations and empathy are key to all development projects around the world.

"Mother Teresa imust be deserves the Nobel Peace Prize because without violating humen dignity she believes in promoting peace  McNamara said.

Mother Teresa had requested the cancellation of the banquet held in her honor after the Nobel Prize ceremony so that the money saved could be used for the betterment of the poor of Kolkata.

Until the last days of his life, he cleaned the toilets of the poor with his own hands and kept washing his own blue saree.

Former Chief Election Commissioner of India Naveen Chawla has written a biography of Mother Teresa. He first met Mother Teresa in 1975, when he was secretary to Delhi's Lieutenant Governor Kishan Chand.

Mother Teresa invited the lieutenant governor to inaugurate one of her institutions.

Naveen Chawla told the BBC: "One thing I noticed was that Mother Teresa's saree was very clean, but it was fixed in places so that it would not look torn."

Naveen Chawla, who wrote the biography of Mother Teresa

"I asked a sister  please tett me why saree of her mother was torn from so much space. She told us that our rule is that we have only three sarees. One we wear. One we keep for washing and the third is for special occasions. So the mother also has only three sarees. That is, this poverty was self-imposed and not due to any compulsion.

People who know Mother Teresa intimately say that her handshake was so appealing that people could not live without her.

As soon as you shake hands with her" It's like happens something 

Sunita Kumar is the wife of former India Davis Cup captain and industrialist Naresh Kumar. She lives in Kolkata.

He and Mother Teresa lived together for 35 years and served as spokespersons for Missionaries of Charity until Mother Teresa's death.

When asked when she first came in contact with Mother Teresa, Sunita Kumar said: 'When I had my first child after marriage, I thought I would do something else. I joined a women's organization where I first met my mother. Mother was teaching us paper packaging for leprosy medicine.

At the time of introduction to her it was miracles of her handshake that connected me to him forever. Their handshake was very strong. A lot of people told me that when they first shook hands with their mother, they felt something.

Mother Teresa had acquired Indian citizenship in 1947. She was fluent in Bengali.

Sunita Kumar says: 'Mother did not need more than four or five hours of sleep. I don't know that the energy came from where. If I called at 12 o'clock at night, she would pick up the phone. Even at home she lived simply, with no secretary or assistant.

Sunita says: 'She was engaged in worship from 5.30 am to 7.30 am. Then go out after breakfast.

Mother Teresa's sense of humor was great

Naveen Chawla says that despite doing such serious work and being around sad and upset people, his sense of humor never left him.

He said: 'She took every serious situation lightly. One of the conditions when she hired a sister was that she should have a sense of humor. She always told jokes. When something was very funny, she would put her hand on her waist and laugh twice.

Naveen Chawla says, "I asked her if you work so seriously and yet you keep laughing, smiling, telling jokes."

"I don't like to go to the poor with said face," she replied. I have to go to them with a happy face.

It is true that mothers used to laugh a lot, but did they ever get angry?

Sunita Kumar says: 'Absolutely not. Surprisingly, she was aggressive, but never shouted, nor did she scold anyone like we scold our children.

"I spent 32 years with him. We never heard him speak.

When Mother Teresa Raghu was angry with Roy 

But according to Raghu Rai, a well-known Indian photographer, there was a time when Mother Teresa was angry, but she soon overcame her anger.

Raghu Rai told the"Mother was very loving, very kind, but so strong that she would blow out the smoke. This was the first time Desmond Laugh and I had sat in his office in the Statesman newspaper. Desmond was telling them that Raghu Rai would take a picture of the three.

At the same time, I saw a half-curtain hanging on a door that was flying. It showed two sisters on the first floor praying for a Bible in their hands.

Raghu said: 'I thought if I sat down I would get a good angle. I suddenly sat down without asking my mother and started taking pictures of her. Mother suddenly became angry and said, "What on earth are you doing?" I said Mother Luck at Dose SistersLike Luck Angels ... Then he said okay. This means that if you have done something with your honesty and commitment, they are always with you.

Hate sin, not sinner 

Mother Teresa believed that man should hate sin, not the sinner.

Naveen Chawla narrates a heartbreaking story: 'I once asked him what tragic event you have seen in your life? "Once, I was walking down the street in Kolkata with asister," he said. I heard a faint sound on a slope.

"When we went back, we saw a woman lying at the site . Mice and cockroaches were hovering over her. She was on the verge of death. Mother picked her up and called her home for dining room. They took it. They cleaned it. They changed their clothes and disinfected it. Then the mother asked, "Who did this to you?" The woman replied, "My own son."

Naveen explains: 'The mother told the woman to forgive him because it was just a matter of moments. Your soul will be united with your God. Pray to your God. I will pray to my God. Go to your God with a light heart. He said he could not forgive her in Madar. I did a lot for him, raised him, educated him and finally when I named my property after him, he left me there with his own hands.

The mother insisted again. After that the woman said nothing for two or four minutes. Then he opened his eyes. He smiled and said I forgave him. She died saying that. There was sadness on her face when she was telling me this story but she was also trying to say how can anyone do this to anyone?

This is a first class miracle'

Many say they have seen Mother Teresa perform miracles.

Naveen Chawla does not believe in miracles. But they have also once seen miracles performed by the mother.

Chawla says: 'Once she came from Rome on an Air India flight. They called me at the airport. His plane arrived 25 minutes late. As soon as he landed, he said that he had to take a connecting flight to Kolkata. In those days there was only one flight to Kolkata in the evening.

He said: 'I said that the flight to Kolkata is boarding. Stay at your ashram today. We will send you to Kolkata tomorrow at six o'clock in the morning. "I can't wait until tomorrow," said the mother. I brought a medicine for a child. If he gets this medicine today, he can survive. I was sweating. Many people were coming there to get his autographs. She was telling everyone to somehow get me to Kolkata.

Chawla said: 'It somehow reached the control tower and from there the pilot also came to know about it. You will be surprised that the pilot stopped the plane while taking a taxi. I was told to put Mother Teresa in the car and take her to the terrace. Mother did not have a suitcase. They had five or six cardboard boxes. One contained her clothes and the other medicine. I loaded everything in the car. A ladder came from somewhere and Mother Teresa boarded the plane and left for Kolkata.

He said: 'The next day I called him and asked how the baby was. Mother Teresa replied, "The baby is getting better." It's a first-class miracle! '

What did Mother Teresa, who cared for the food of the world's poor, eat herself?

Sunita Kumar says: 'Their food was very simple ... Porridge, lentils and fish once in ten to twenty days, because fish was the staple food of the people of Kolkata. One thing she really liked. That was chocolate. When she died, I opened the drawer of her desk and found a slab of Cadbury chocolate in it.

But very few people know that she did not accept even a glass of water given by the people outside her ashram. And there was a reason

Mother Teresa with Yasser Arafat

Naveen Chawla says: 'Mother Teresa has been to the house where you are sitting many times, but she has never had a glass of water. In the beginning, when she came to Raj Bhavan, we would ask her if she would like some tea. His answer was always 'no'.

"We don't eat with the richis or with the poor,s" she said. When we go to the poor, it is difficult to give them a cup of tea or a cold drink. So now we have a rule that we do not drink a drop of water.

Indra is my friend'

Whether it was US President Ronald Reagan or Russian President Mikhail Gorbachev, or German Chancellor Helmut Kohl or Yasser Arafat, everyone had a special attachment to Mother Teresa.

When Indira Gandhi lost the election in 1977, Mother Teresa went to see her specially. Someone even said that what is the use of meeting Indira Gandhi now?

Mother Teresa replied, "They are my friends." Moreover, former Bengal Chief Minister Jyoti Basu and Mother Teresa were ideologically opposed to each other despite being fans of each other.

Naveen Chawla says, "I once asked Jyoti Basu if you are a communist, an atheist. And for them, God is everything. What do you have in common with Mother Teresa? '

"We both love the poor," Jyoti Basu laughed.I could go to her room at any time without an appointment," Basu said. When they were sick, the mother would come to their house and pray for themWhile Jyoti Basu did not believe in God.

Naveen Chawla says: 'When Mother Teresa was ill, Jyoti Basu used to go to the hospital every day. Didn't meet them, but did register their attendance. The two had a wonderful relationship: based on poverty and goodness.
