Paragraph 43

In plain words

The Master has many women devotees. He called Gopal's Mother "Mother," and used to address her as "Gopal's Mother." He saw every woman as the Divine Mother Herself and worshipped her as the Mother. But until a man could see a woman as the Mother Herself, until he had pure devotion to God, the Master would tell him to be on his guard with women. He would forbid men to associate with them, even with women of the deepest devotion. He himself had said to the Mother, "Mother, if lust should arise in me, mind You, Mother, I shall cut my throat."
