Mata AmritanandamayiThe more intellectual you are, the more egoistic you are, and surrendering becomes more difficult.
Mata AmritanandamayiPeople think that God wants our offerings. God does not need anything from us. He is the giver. He is like the sun - the giver of light.
Mata AmritanandamayiThere is a pre-existing harmony in everything. The problem is the human being.
