In today's world, both men and woman need motherhood, the nurturing motherly feeling, the feminine energy. By receiving this energy, it will make them independent and free.

Death is not complete annihilation. It is a pause. It is like pressing the pause button on a tape recorder.

Problems arise when you identify with your thoughts and emotions. Try to be a witness to the thoughts instead of being totally identified with them.

Children, we should consider every name as the name of our beloved deity. Imagine that He is the one that appears in all the different forms. If our beloved deity is Krishna, then while chanting the names of the Divine Mother, imagine that Krishna has come before us as Devi. We should not think that since we are chanting Devi's names, Krishna might not like it. These differences exist only in our world, not in His.

Whatever work we do, our mind should be centered on God.

If you are unable to meditate, chant your mantra or sing bhajans.

What makes Amma happy, is to see her children helping others to feel happy.
