Don't be discouraged by your incapacity to dispel darkness from the world. Light your little candle and step forward.
Mata AmritanandamayiA true spiritual seeker should exercise control all the time, throughout the day and night.
Mata AmritanandamayiWriting a diary every evening before going to bed is a good habit. We can record in the diary how much time we have devoted to our spiritual practice. The diary should be written in a way that helps us see our mistakes and correct them. It should not be a mere document of other peoples' faults or our daily transactions.
Mata AmritanandamayiThe extra luggage of indiscriminate dreams, desires and attachments will make your life's journey miserable.
Mata AmritanandamayiTo Amma, all are Her children. In Amma's eyes no defect of Her children is serious. But when She is considered as the guru, it is essential for the growth of the disciples that they conduct themselves according to the tradition. Amma will pardon all the mistakes of Her children, but nature has certain laws. That is what brings punishment for our sins. Children, we should be able to take any sorrow or suffering as conducive for our growth.
