Peace is not just the absence of war and conflict; it goes well beyond that. Peace must be fostered within the individual, within the family and within society. Simply transferring the world's nuclear weapons to a museum will not in itself bring about world peace. The nuclear weapons of the mind must first be eliminated.
Mata AmritanandamayiConsoling a miserable soul, wiping the tears of a crying person is greater than any worldly achievement.
Mata AmritanandamayiIf you have patience, then you'll also have love. Patience leads to love. If you forcefully open the petals of a bud, you won't be able to enjoy its beauty and fragrance. Only when it blossoms by following its natural course, will the beauty and fragrance of a flower unfold.
Mata AmritanandamayiGod is standing at the door of every heart. Call Him. He is waiting to come in.
