I love reading swamiji's books and thoughts since due to plain and simple writing , my not so great mind is able to absorb it and helps me improve .
Extracts from what Swami Vikakananda said about god and mother
GOD : Can you see your own eyes? God is like that. He is as close as your own eyes. He is your own, even though you can't see Him.
MOTHERHOOD : The highest of all feminine types in India is mother, higher than wife. Wife and children may desert a man, but his mother never. Mother is the same or loves her child perhaps a little more. Mother represents colourless love that knows no barter, love that never dies. Who can have such love? — only mother, not son, nor daughter, nor wife.
