Guest guest Posted February 3, 2010 Report Share Posted February 3, 2010 DID YOU EVER THINK LIKE THIS!!! Do you know? a human body can bear only upto 45 Del (unit) of pain. But at the time of giving birth, a woman feels upto 57 Del of Pain. This is similar to 20 bones getting fractured at a time!!!! LOVE UR MOM... God couldn't be everywhere and therefore he made Mothers... THE MOST BEAUTIFUL PERSON ON THIS EARTH… OUR BEST CRITIC … YET OUR STRONGEST SUPPORTER… " MOTHER " Let my every word be a prayer to Thee, Every movement of my hands a ritual gesture to Thee, Every step I take a circumambulation of Thy image, Every morsel I eat a rite of sacrifice to Thee, Every time I lay down a prostration at Thy feet; Every act of personal pleasure and all else that I do, Let it all be a form of worshiping Thee.

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Sri Mathre Namaha another fact about mothers which Mother's created!!!  Fat in normal women represents between 18% and 20% of body weight, whereas in men it represents only 10% to 15%. The reason for this difference is that women at some point in their lives may nourish a fetus and then a baby from their own reserves, so women have to stock energy in the form of fat in anticipation of future pregnancies (and must stock even more energy during the last two trimesters of pregnancy).  " Shivas-ShaktyA yukto yadi bhavati shaktaH prabhavituM na ced-evaM devo na khalu kushalaH spanditum-api / atas-tvAm-ArAdhyAM hari-hara-virinchAdibhir-api praNantuM stotuM vA katham-akRtapuNyaH prabhavati "  ShaktyA yuktaH bhavati yadi .

Guest guest Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Namaste, Reading this conversation, I am reminded of not only the sacredness of mothers, but an anthropological theory on ancient societies. There is debate on its accuracy, but it is said back in older times, women were venerated before men because it is the woman who not only gives life, but who bleeds for a period of a month without dying. This also leads to which may have came first: goddess or god worship? Those who support this theory would suggest goddess worship came first and those who have read Bhattacharyya's book on the history of Shaktism would be apt to say the same (I would personally agree). As for modern times, many societies seem patriarchal, but...despite this, there is a quote said in the West...that recited the following adage. " 'Mother' is the name for God in the eyes of a child. " --Unknown Author Whether this holds true for all western societies or not, I do suspect more people would be inclined to talk to their mother when they struggle or have problems before they approach the father. Is this not what people of many religions do when they pray to God? Not just asking for this or that, but confessing one's concerns, burdens, and so forth while also giving thanks for guidance? Jai Ma! Aum Shanthi. Sincerely, Arya/Christina On Sat, Feb 6, 2010 at 7:00 PM, Buwaneshwari Ramatas <khiravaniwrote: > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 Sri Matre Namaha Its a very informative piece and thanks for sharing with us. A slight modification though: Instead of " God couldn't be everywhere and therefore he made Mothers " , why can't we say " God couldn't be perceived by everyone everywhere and therefore he made Mothers,though the truth is there is no place where He is not " .

Guest guest Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Namaste, I have found this idea interesting myself. But mostly I think it is good to have a choice in these things. For some, the Divine is clearest in the masculine, for others the feminine. But to have only one and not the other available will leave some people wondering why they feel no connection at all. The symbolic language of the sacred may be different for each person. For me, the image of the Mother has always opened that connection for me. When I tried to conform to the dominant view of my culture I felt nothing, and the absence of that connection makes a fertile spiritual life into a desert. I take such comfort in the Mother, in how I sense Her presence. Yet even the scriptures say that to behold Her in Her true form is overwhelming, too much for an ordinary person. In this I accept the idea that this Divine which I see in my own way, is likely so much more than I can define. She is merciful in showing Herself in a way that each of us can reach.
