Blessed is the ancestry, blessed is the father, and blessed is that mother who gave birth to devotees. -Guru Ram Das Sahib, Guru Granth Sahib, 1135

Message: Have you ever wondered why parents are so excited when they have children? They see a miniature of their childhood in their children, their flesh and blood. We are often so proud of projects and things we create and our initiatives. Imagine creating a being!

Blessed are the father and mother who bring into this world another human and guide him or her to become a good human being who enshrines divine values and love in the heart. Blessed is the entire family that helps to raise such a child.

Let�s be grateful to them and make every effort to pass on their blessings forward. We too will be blessed if we continue this flow. We should also recognise the fact that the entire universe is God�s creation and we are all one family, and should treat each other as such.

�I always wondered why God was supposed to be a father,� she whispers. �Fathers always want you to measure up to something. Mothers are the ones who love you unconditionally.� –Jodi Picoult
