Mother Teresa said that such a statue is standing in front of her eyes. A Satkiva woman is wearing a white sari with blue border. When people take the name of Mother Teresa, they feel kindness in their hearts and when she is addressed as Mother, a gentle expression comes on their faces.
People often wondered why Mother Teresa, who dedicated her life to humanity, never thought about marriage. The answer to this question will be found only when the youngest daughter of the Boyajiu family goes to pray at the age of 12.
When Mother Teresa was young, she developed an interest in spirituality and social welfare. Mother Teresa was very involved in everything from prayer to everything else. On August 15, 1928, when 12-year-old Annis went to pray at the Black Madonna Shrine in Vitina, he decided that he would work like other missionaries in Bengal.
Firm in her decision, Annis left home at the age of 18. She learned English from the sisters of Loreto. She came to India in 1929, settled in Darjeeling and began teaching in a school and also learned Bengali.
She took her first religious vows in 1931. She then chose the Spanish name Teresa, inspired by the name of the nun Therese of Liseux. How could a person who had pledged to dedicate herself to humanity at the age of 12 think of starting her life like any other ordinary woman? Teresa was always busy trying to find ways to help the poor, the miserable and the sick.
According to reports, Mother Teresa, who was dedicated to her mission, felt that if she got caught up in marriage or starting a family of her own, she might lose focus. For her, only one relationship was important and that was with God.
