Love for mothers on the wane, says Mayor

Special Correspondent

THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: Reverence and love for mothers are on the decline in the

present generation, the Mayor, J. Chandra, has said. She was speaking after

inaugurating the `Easwaramba' Day observance organised by the Sri Sathya Sai

Orphanage Trust here on Saturday. Prof. Chandra said that one should always

think of one's mother as love for the mother is the most exalted of affections.

"I have the habit of paying obeisance to my mother every day", she said. The

chief guest at the function, Mariamma Oommen Chandy, wife of the Chief

Minister, Oommen Chandy, said a mother loves her child without expecting

anything in return. For the same reason, one should never hurt one's mother.

Ms. Chandy said she remembered her mother in all her prayers every day.

Easwaramba' Day is observed by Sai devotees in connection with the death

anniversary of Sai Baba's mother, Easwaramba. A `Mathrupooja', worship of the

mother, was also conducted by children under the supervision of the Balavikas

zonal coordinator of the Sathya Sai Seva Samithi.
