Read the following passage and write the summary of it.
When Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar was working as a professor in the Sanskrit college,
Calcutta. His mother sent him word that he should see her at once in their native village in
Midnapur. He immediately applied to the Principal of the college for leave, but the Principal
would not grant his prayer. Ishwar Chandra, thereupon, submitted his letter of resignation
stating therein that he considered it a disgrace to continue in service to the distress of his
mother’s feeling. The college authorities were taken aback and had to climb down. Leave
was granted. He set out at noon and walked till evening to reach the bank of the Damodar. It
was impossible to cross the rain-swollen Damodar at night. When he went to the riverside the
following morning, he saw that the river had become stormy and the ferry boats had ceased
to ply. He offered the boatmen a large reward, but they dared not make the attempt. So, he
jumped into the river and proceeded to swim across. The men standing on the bank were
amazed and remarked, “The Brahmin is bent upon ending his life.” But protected by his
mother’s blessing, he fought his way bravely through the mighty waves and reached the other
bank in perfect safety.
