Mother Hladini Memories:
Correction
From Malati-manjari dasi
Dear Prabhus,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
I want to thank whoever has put my request for memories about Hladini Mataji on your web site. However, I used an expression that is not really befitting to the situation, and I beg you to change that if possible. Instead of saying she was executed in Liberia it would be better to say she was murdered, as one devotee pointed out that to "execute" means to put to death especially by carrying out a lawful sentence. And that, of course, doesn't hold true for this great saint who was shot by a rebel leader.
Thank you for your consideration.
Your servant,
Malati-manjari dasi
