“True mother love is unconditional. We can say that in many ways it is
more spiritual and therefore greater than most human expressions of
love. God implanted in the heart of the mother a love for the child that
is unconditional, regardless of the child’s merit or behaviour. Even
if the child in later life becomes a murderer, the mother’s love
remains steady, unchanged…The unconditional love of the mother is
perhaps the human love closest to the perfection of God’s love. The
true mother forgives her son even when no one else will. That kind of
love exemplifies God’s love; He forgives His children no matter what
sins they have committed. Now who could have placed this love in the
mother’s heart, save God? In true maternal love God gives us distinct
proof that he loves us unconditionally, no matter how wicked we are, or
how many times we have sinned.” --Paramahansa Yoganandaji
“You are freer with your mother than with anybody else. You open your
heart more freely to her than to your father. There is no God greater
than your mother. It is she who protects you, nourishes you, consoles
you, cheers you and nurses you. She is your first Guru. The first
syllable which almost every quadruped or human being utters is the
beloved name of the Mother—“Ma”. She sacrifices her all for the
sake of her children… She alone can give to the child the milk of
knowledge and culture and shape its destiny. The rising generation
depends entirely upon the training given by the mothers. The improvement
and strengthening of the nation is in the hands of the mothers… The
rearing of children is really the building up of a nation or a country.
From children a nation is made.” --Sri Swami Sivananda
“All women seek one thing above all, to have a child…if not on the
physical plane, then spiritually. No woman is exempt, it is part of her
nature to expect to be fertilized and have children. “But can a man
fertilize a woman spiritually?” you ask. Yes, if their love is
spiritual…A great Master could…fertilize all women all over the
earth…on condition that they accept his Ideal, for in this case, that
is what the seed would be… One might say that womanhood exists as a
unity, a Collective Woman…If this collective Woman were to consecrate
[herself] to the forming of a collective Child, after receiving the seed
of a sublime Ideal…then that child would be the Kingdom of God [on
earth]…Women must unite spiritually…to produce this child. All
women, single or married, mothers of families or not, must now become
conscious of…the sacred duty they have: to improve the world by
contributing their creative emanations to form a new collective body,
the Kingdom of God on earth.” --Master Omraam Mikhael Aivanhov
