________________ Does a child desire to see his mother as a mother or in the form of Parmatma? Would Marudeva, mother of Tirthankar Bhagwan Rushabhdev, have attained salvation if she kept calling “Rushabh, Rushabh” all the time? What if she had not listened to her inner calling and realised that all relationships are a delusion and nobody is mine? Imagine the extent of love and feelings of a mother who has been with a child for 82 lakh purva (thousands and thousands of years) and the same son, when he attains Right Knowledge (Kevalgyan), travels from one village to other and reaches his home town of Vanita... what would be the first thing he would do? Meet his mother? No....!!! Will HE send a message to HIS mother? “Mom, I am here...? No...!!!" Rushabh has true love for his mother, not attachment. Rushabh loved his mother but he wasn't attached to her... There is a difference between love and attachment. HE respected HIS mother and that was the reason HE wished the path ofliberation and Salvation for HIS mother. A child that ignores his mother, disregards and disrespects her should remember that he is confirming his place in an orphanage in the next birth. = 8
