The Categorized Woman – The Mother


Tushar Jain

The most cumbersome issues that have ever been raised or pressed have had the liability of being the enormously uncertain part of a suggestion or a reckoning. A question in itself is mild, an inquiry is ethereal but a concern can be jeopardizing to the meandering interest of the evasive. Of a question, whatever it might be, the restitution is not an answer yielded out of deliberation, instead dialectic portrayals of a wielded intention that is expounded and explained by guilt.

The set question here is very systematic but holds the entrenching potential enriched with the absolute propensity of a concern. Concerns bear an aftermath and those that are profound, furthermore bear an impending holocaust. Hence, the answer to this is a mould not of deliberation but of a tremulous intention and extemporary judgment, that is an upshot of nothing.

A mother never really educates a child; she does not help efface the lampooning remarks and blemishes of the child’s social onsets; she does not render platitude where it is ideally essential and almost desperately sought; she induces in him neither substance nor principled rigidity; her protocol though necessitated and regimental is not always immaculate; in the ghost of strangeness, she eludes him of familiarity or the suspicion of it and accepts a child as her own, without the vented knowledge of his or her mortality, genteel and individuality; psychoanalytically maundering, by no means is every mother the pith and quintessence of a child’s fanatical inspiration and fancy; in cities, in lanes and in houses, ‘she’ varies with her well-bred opinions, against her notions and norms but her definitions are interdicted, taut to a vintage and a hereditary, mythical normalcy. The question is still an inquiry and the inquiry is nevertheless growing to a thorough concern.

In loneliness, men develop the insanity of silence. In it, sometimes they elicit and draw dissatisfactions and sometimes, tyranny; nothing befriends dysfunction, but the children of solitude are likeable, furtive imitations of chaos, reproduced in one’s humanly cessations and maddening infirmities. Loneliness is a science not of multiplicity but implicitness. It bears a deranged passion to invoke, surge and inure. In its assailing term of ailment, conscience becomes a hub, elation, a symptom and emotion, a syndrome.

A mother fills in as a companion. A sort of righteous presence that helps a child resolve on performance rather than action. It decimates inhibition, corrugates self-debility and most momentously, expunges solitude. It provides the first dose of wakeful consciousness into a fierce world where consciousness itself becomes the integral part of survival and the most focal instinct. A mother helps a child incur the vitalized right not of health or education but of free and due subsistence, paraphrasing the context of life through an introduction to the first chapter in belonging to humanity. It is but rare that except that acceptance, the compromise of a relation and the investment of a tragedy, a mother and a child cannot grow more than mere acquaintances.
