My Day starts with these four words
Matha, Pitha, Guru, Deyvam.... Translation is, “Mother Father Teacher God”.
The meaning of this is the greatest truth, and is the order in which one should offer reverence
First comes the mother (Matha or Mata) who gives birth to the child, thereby bringing us as a child into this world. Next comes the father (Pitha or Pita), because it is the mother who knows the truth about the father and she points us to the father. The mother and father then takes us to the teacher (Guru), and it is the guru, through his or her teachings, points us to God (Deivam or Devam). Here God represent the consciousness or self-awareness or our real self.
