The fact remains that
the birth-cycles of all sentient beings are beginningless, and that
numberless times in previous lives we have each fulfilled the role of a
mother.
The
feeling of a mother for her child is a classic example of love. For the
safety, protection and welfare of her children, a mother is ready to
sacrifice her very life.
Recognizing
this, children should be grateful to their mothers and express their
gratitude by performing virtuous deeds.

The
Power of Mother Love: Transforming Both Mother and Child By
Brenda Hunter Today,
following decades of scientific and psychological study, there is overwhelming
evidence that "mother love" does forever shape the life of a child. In
her compelling new work, however, author and psychologist Brenda Hunter presents
a convincing argument that indicates this love is even more powerful, even more
far-reaching than our culture has yet realized-not only for the child, but for
the mother.Affirming
the immeasurable value of the mothering role while realistically addressing
women's greatest questions and concerns, Hunter clearly reveals how mother love
positively affects the way a woman defines herself. All mothers, and all those
who care about the lives of women, children, and the future of our society will
be dramatically impacted by this not-to-be-missed book, skillfully written to
empower women to mother from the heart.
