With the Holy Mother as the centre of inspiration, a Math is to be established on the eastern bank of the Ganga. . . . On the other side of the Ganga a big plot of land will be acquired, where unmarried girls or Brahmacharini widows will live devout married women will also be allowed to stay now and then. Men will have no concern with this Math.
Swami Vivekananda
