Mother’s Day 2025: A poem by Dr.Nitin Pawar.Pune,India
“A Mother’s Light”
“In mom’s arms, the world feels right,
A smooth hug, a guiding light. Through storms or sun, she’s always near, With whispered love mom calms all fear.
Mom’s hands may tire, her feet may ache, Yet every step, for us Nom’ll take.
No crown Mom wears, no throne, no fame, But in our hearts, Mom holds her name.”

Mothers are the first teachers, the first friends, the first teachers—-

This immense love of a mother for her child is amazing. Also understand the causality behind this. It is not just an emotional relationship, family relationship, blood relationship, but there are some scientific reasons behind it. We are also giving a scientific explanation for this below.
What are the scientific reasons behind a mother’s love? —
1. Effect of Oxytocin Hormone (Oxytocin – Love Hormone)—
As soon as a child is born, a hormone called oxytocin is secreted in large quantities in the mother’s body. This is also called the “love hormone”. This hormone helps to create an emotional bond between the mother and the child. Remember that this hormone is more active when breastfeeding or cuddling the baby.
2. Emotional connection in the brain:
When a mother hears the sound of a baby crying or laughing, the parts of the brain related to emotions and empathy (amygdala, hypothalamus, nucleus accumbens) are activated very quickly. That is why the mother immediately wants to run to the baby.
3. Evolutionary perspective:
For the survival of the human species, it is very important for the mother to love and protect her baby. According to natural selection, mothers who have a strong feeling of love and security for their baby are born naturally. Due to this, their offspring survive longer. The next generations continue to be produced.
4. Genetic bond:
Mother and baby have 50% DNA in common. Therefore, the mother’s brain naturally perceives the baby as “a part of itself” without considering it as a stranger. This natural bond creates care and love between the mother and her offspring in living beings.
5. Physical changes and attitudes:
Since pregnancy, many hormonal and neurochemical changes occur in the mother’s body. These changes strengthen the mother’s awareness, responsibility and connection with the baby.
What is the conclusion?
A mother’s love for her offspring is not just a social or emotional construct. Behind it are deep scientific scientific foundations of the brain, hormones, genes and evolution. That is why a mother’s love is absolute, deep, mysterious, and eternal.
