Master: God could not be in the physical form everywhere, so He created mothers. A mother is anyone who has developed a mother’s heart. Spiritual masters can be considered as mothers, as their devotees become their children. When I pray, I see God as my mother, as mothers are easier to please. Fathers have hard heads. Remembering mothers when they are not with you in their physical forms makes you appreciate them more, as you know all their love and effort has made you what you are today. It is the mother who helps you initially, then the spiritual Master takes over. Today, instead of just celebrating Mother’s Day, let us remind ourselves how little we appreciate our mothers during the rest of the year. — Satish Daryanani
