The extra luggage of indiscriminate dreams, desires and attachments will make your life's journey miserable.
Mata AmritanandamayiLook at the optimism of Nature. Nothing can stop it. Only the ego makes humans pessimistic, and this causes suffering.
Mata AmritanandamayiChildren, we should always eat our food sitting down. Do not eat standing or walking around.
Mata AmritanandamayiMany people meditate in order that a third eye may open. For that they feel they should close their two physical eyes. They thereby become blind to the world. But the fact is that the third eye will never open. We can never close our eyes to the world in the name of spirituality. Self-realization is the ability to see ourselves in all beings. This is the third eye through which you see, even while your two eyes are open. We should be able to love and serve others, seeing ourselves in them. This is the fulfillment of spiritual practice.
