68. Ideal mother So are there any exceptional mothers to our society who are role model to Ma members? Well, history has seen some great examples of such love and compassion. One such icon is Mother Teresa. She rendered herself to the service of God and humanity. To pursue her mission she remained a nun for her lifetime, but she is indeed a Mother to the universe and every human on earth is her child. Members of Ma should work in a committed way to attain such motherliness as hers in whatever way they can. Even our Father of Nation Mahatma Gandhi possessed such motherliness and our ex President of India Dr. A.B.J. Abdul Kalam exhibited the fine qualities when he spent time to converse and be in the company of children, again because he possessed the heart and ambitions of mother who teaches her children everything they will need to know on their journey to a successful life.
