The idea behind the event was to get Mangalurean mothers off the virtual world of Facebook and encourage them to meet in real, so that they can have a meaningful and personal connection. The guest speaker was Mrs Irol Pais, wife of renowned doctor Dr. Christopher Pais who shared her views on motherhood and parenting with the audience.

MOM also encouraged other mommies to meet up and carry on the vision of the group of a more integrated and united Mangaluru. The meet also included a session on mommies getting to know each other, followed by fun games for the kids. Gifts for the children were sponsored by Octaplus medical app, Ortho1 speciality clinic and Baby Choice.

MOM is a non profit, non religious and non political group. As a part of the group's initiative, it has a panel of doctors who are selflessly responding to queries from the members. A Nutritionist, health support groups, lactation specialist, baby food recipes from experienced chefs, contests, mass child immunization reminders, daily parenting tips, women health tips published by our doctors, Mompreneur Mondays (forum for Mothers to display their entrepreneurial skills via posts on their businesses) are some other initiatives of the group.

Further, through their thoughtful members, they have contributed Rs 29,500 to the Chennai flood relief funds. With many more initiatives in the works, the group’s aim is to only make Mangaluru a better city for the future through its people, mostly through its mothers.

Hi Everybody... I am one of the members of this group. I see there are a few things that we need to clarify . This is not an \ELITIST\" group.We could entertain only the first 30 requests.. We also encourage mothers to have their own meet ups. We have thousands of mothers in the group from different back grounds who are utilizing the selfless services provided by many of the mothers in our region. There is no bar from joining this group based on cast religion economic standards or any other parameter . Our sincere belief is that mothers can and have been making a change in this world and we want to facilitate this in our home in a more evident way, ie Coastal Karnataka. There are a lot of well wishers in our region who do a lot of charitable acts. But unless we personally see it we dont get involved or motivated enough to carry on such acts .Getting people to our roots before the advent of social media of meeting each other, talking to each other to get more connected and have a personal and human touch is one of the ways to a more integrated and understanding society . Please let us now if you have more queries."

A man asked Prophet Muhammad pbuh who is more entitled to be treated with best companionship by Me?
The Prophet pbuh said \Your MOTHER\"
The man asked again who next?
The prophet pbuh said \"Your MOTHER\"
Then he asked again who next?
The Propeht pbuh said \"Your MOTHER\"
The man asked for the Fourth time \"Who is next?\"
The Prophet pbuh said \"Your Father\"
If the mothers did not read about prophet muhammad pbuh - They are missing a lot in this life."

Bengaluru, Feb 16: Radhakrishnan V Nair embarked on a journey of exploring complex subjects and opening up the cocoon of existence that puts people in a zone of comfort. One sole mission of the book is to encourage the readers to break out of that comfort zone.

The architect by profession has a novel to his credit, 'The Cave of Freedom' that had earned him critical acclaim from Jnanpith Awardee UR Ananthamurthy. On February 13, a discussion and the reading of his book had the audience riveted to their seats.

The launch of the book on February 13 at Bangalore International Centre was presided over by Bhaskar Rao, Commissioner of Police, Bengaluru, along with Vasudev Murthy, Technology Management Consultant, leadership trainer and author and Ramessh RK, an industrial designer and choir singer who read out passages from the book.

'Radhakrishnan is trying to inspire you to discover the pleasure of breaking the glass barrier along with the protagonist Dr Prateek. The story 'burst out'", said Radhakrishnan when it could not be contained any longer.

The glass ceiling saw a lot of interest from the audience present. The book includes Dr Prateek who is obsessed with saving lives in the Emergency Room (ER) as the world slept. Then on an eerie rainy night, he is kidnapped.

He struggles to come to terms with the improbability of waking up somewhere in Europe and making his serendipitous escape and being back at work the next morning - all physically impossible from the point of view of time and locality.

The glass ceiling challenges you to see tragedies and their impact on a person's mental well-being from a different perspective.

Radhakrishnan V Nair is an architect by profession and runs his Bengaluru-based firm - Archaid, the tagline of which is 'Architecture in Collaboration with Nature'.
