Sacrifice
is a commendable virtue. It wins sympathy even from the formidable opponent,
however stony heart he is endowed with. The appreciation it gains from the
witnessing public gives fillip to the like minds that wrest victory of
outstanding nature. It does throw a halo round the head of the hero who
ventures to enter the zone where the angels or daredevils seldom step in. If the
sacrifice is made for the benefit of a community, or country and wins its cause.
It becomes memorably monumental and stands as 'beacon light for the future
generations. The sacrifices adorn a covetable place in the pantheon and receive
eternal veneration. This universal truth is exemplified out and out by the
unprecedented sacrifice made by Mother Kanyakaparameswari for holding aloft the
glory of womanhood and honour of her community.
