yaa devi sarva bhuteshu…..mathru rupena samsthitha....mother....maatha

 

yaa devi sarva bhuteshu…..mathru rupena samsthitha

 

the principle of maatha”

is one of the many features of devi

 

….in the sloka ”yaa devi sarva bhuteshu…..mathru rupena samsthitha”

.

..devi is a goddess, not one particular mother,

nor a statue in a temple,

 

but it is the principle of mother in all pranis,

 

whether cat dog monkey human, chicken, bird, elephant, lion

..the principle of motherly care , responsibility, love, tender qualities, patience, in conceiving, giving birth

and protecting, feeding,

teaching skills , play , work, protection ,

cleaning, sanitation, etc.

..which are common features of mother in all pranis

 

… when i saw a cat attending to her children,
so lovingly , and commitment, against all odds, involving hard work,
i really was thrilled to see mother ”devi”’ in it

 

……………..that is how devi is eternal ,
all pervading in all beings, sarva bhuteshu,

 

not localized in time or space or to a specie

 

…so similarly all gods are particular eternal, principles,
eternal non changing laws of nature governing the universe
