INTRODUCTION
Any one who embarks on a new duty, takes up a new responsibility has to be educated enough to be able to complete the work with precision. Motherhood is a divine responsibility and it requires appropriate education. We do not have any particular courses or institutions for this training. This book has been written with this purpose in mind. It is a message and a guideline for all existing and would be mothers. We all are aware of the famous saying that “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world”. There is undoubtedly a lot of truth in this. The children of today are the citizens of tomorrow. A mother's role in a child's formative years is very important and crucial. Thus a mother has to be aptly equipped to perform this duty successfully.
The mothers were, are and will always remain the backbone of the family and of the whole society in a broader sense. This book will take a mother on a journey from individual motherhood to universal motherhood.
