Unlike the spiritual and mythical novels Shri Jagadguru Shankaracharya and Ram Rajya the novel Maa aur Main is an autobiographical narrative that describes the role of a mother in nurturing the all round - social, spiritual, mental and religious development of a child. Pdt. Janardan Rai Nagar has depicted in his own unique style different facets of motherhood like sacrifice, struggle, strength, and selfless love as has been done by some of the creators of world classics like Maxim Gorky, Mahashweta Devi and Vishwambhar Nath Sharma in their novels. The mother in Pdt. Nagar's novel is not a lady confined to the four walls of home rather she is an active inspiration , a carrier of social change and a symbol of selfless love. The novel achieves an emotional zenith in its narration as the author remembers his own mother who guided the society towards a virtuous path. As one reaches the end of the novel (s)he realizes that everyone must understand the importance of mother.
