Keeping traditions alive

Last week we all celebrated Mother’s Day and from today we will be celebrating Navratrai for another nine days in the memories of our Devi Mata. Keeping good traditions is very important but we must not forget the people who gave their and their loved ones lives for us.
During these days we must remember Mata Gujri the Mother of Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the tenth Guru of Sikhism ,The wife of Guru Tegh Bahadur ji  the ninth guru of Sikhs and Grand mother of Ajit Singh, Jujjhar Singh, Zorawar Singh, Fetah Singh.
Her husband, her son and all her four grand sons were killed by the Mogul Muslim Kings for not accepting the Islam.
Is there any where we can find the similar example of  a woman . If not then. We must therefore remember  her in all the Temples and Gurudwaras on mother day and in Navrathrai the Greatest Devi of all. Due to short of space I cannot go on for more historical truths.
