The Divine Essence of Motherhood

A mother is not just a biological creator but a divine nurturer. She embodies patience, wisdom, kindness, and sacrifice. Her love doesn’t expect returns — it just flows, like a river that never runs dry.

In ancient scriptures, motherhood is equated with God. In Hinduism, the concept of “Matru Devo Bhava” (मातृ देवो भव:) emphasizes that mother is to be worshipped like a deity. Similarly, in Sikhism, Punjabi mothers are seen as warriors and saints who raise children with strength and spiritual values.
