Children, do not listen to those who malign masters and sages. Never listen to or indulge in derogatory talk about anyone. When we harbor negative thoughts about others, our minds become impure.
Mata AmritanandamayiSpiritual love is without limits or boundaries. Worldly love is superficial and fluctuating.
Mata AmritanandamayiFinding fault in others, just for the sake of finding fault, we will pollute our own minds.
Mata AmritanandamayiChildren, not a grain of the food we eat is made purely by our own effort. What comes to us in the form of food is the work of others, the bounty of Nature and God's compassion. Even if we have millions of dollars, we still need food to satisfy our hunger. Can we eat dollars? Therefore, never eat anything without first praying with humility.
