Ma

Ma FAMILIARITY From the day one , we are familiar with Ma , whose milk is our food. The person whom we love most is Ma. Foster mother is equally dear , as in Krishna’s Yashoda. The boy did not even know his real mother Devki. When we grow up , there can be differences between mother and son . On the other hand , they may become friends. The Maratha King Shivaji’s mother was his guide and guru. Maxim Gorky’s novel “Mother” played a significant role in the Russian revolution. The word “Ma” is anathema to Muslims , because it denotes “Devi” of Hindus “Vande Matharam” was to be our National Anthem , but it was rejected because of Muslim opposition. It is a beautiful poem!
