Stories As Told By Ma

What Mother says is so universal and attractive that one feels one’s loftiest desires and aspirations expressed in her words. Every single sentence from her lips naturally illumines a new horizon that is ever abiding and glorious. She does not enter into any reasoned argument or elaborate discussion, nor does she willingly give any instruction or command to anybody. A man obtains from her as much as the intensity of his love and devotion calls forth. In the course of her everyday talks, in the shape of smiling suggestions and parables, she expresses ideas and thoughts about life and religion. Mother chooses the tiny incidents of everyday life as vehicles to express lofty truths and principles of human conduct. What she says or does is full of hints for our guidance both in the worldly and religious life.
