Amidst sorrows, the only thing that enlivens us is optimistic faith. Never lose that faith.
Mata AmritanandamayiChildren, we must cultivate reverence towards all great masters, monks and gurus.
Mata AmritanandamayiIf we have love and compassion in our hearts, then we will wholeheartedly serve those who suffer from lack of food, clothing and shelter.
Mata AmritanandamayiThere is no short cut to God; sadhana must be performed regularly and with devotion. It is our own effort which will enable us to experience the grace of God which is being showered on us all the time. Therefore, whatever spare time you get, use it to seek God. If you create peace in your own heart by doing sadhana, then that will have a positive effect on your family, your work and so on. The peace and love of God will overflow out of your heart and encourage others to move on the right path.
Mata AmritanandamayiBefore death overpowers us, we have great things to accomplish by performing right actions.
Mata AmritanandamayiEveryone in the world should sleep without fear at least for one night, sleep without fear. Everyone in the world should eat to their fill, at least for one day, eat to their fill. There should be one day when there is no violence, no one is injured, no one is harmed. All people young and old should serve the poor and needy, at least for one day serve selflessly. This is my dream....this is my prayer. Love is the answer, love is the way. Love is the answer, love is the way.
Mata Amritanandamayi
