THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
OUR MOST BELOVED BHAGAWAN’S DIVINE MESSAGE
Consider it your foremost duty to revere your mother as
Divine and serve her. If you cannot respect your mother,
who bore you for nine months, brought you forth into the
world and cares for you, whom else would you respect?
Maternal love is akin to that of the Creator who projects and
protects this infinite cosmos in countless ways. You may
choose to worship the Divine in the form of a Goddess.
Another may worship and adore God in a different form.
You should note that the forms in which the Divine is
worshipped by others are as important as your own chosen
deity. If, on the contrary, you criticize or cast a slur on the
deities worshipped by others, you are committing a
grievous sin. Similarly, respect and show equal regard and reverence to all mothers
(women) as you would to your own mother. (Divine Discourse, Oct 14, 1988.)
