Mata AmritanandamayiIf we approach Nature with , it will serve us as our best friend, a friend that won't let us down.
Mata AmritanandamayiThe impermanent, which is the body, is given too much importance. The permanent, which is the Atman, is completely forgotten. This should change.
Mata AmritanandamayiIf the goal is to realize the Supreme Being, you should become egoless. That requires self-effort. The sadhak should work hard. He should pray sincerely for the removal of the negative tendencies. This prayer is not to achieve anything or to fulfill any desires. It is to go beyond all achievements. It is to transcend all desires.
Mata AmritanandamayiWe are not isolated islands, we are connected links in a chain. Each kind word, each smiling face, each good action, benefits our neighbor, nation, world. Let us pray and meditate together and we shall reach the shore of peace, spreading the sweet holy fragrance of love and vibrations of unity and harmony. Tuning our minds to the supreme consciousness, let us open our hearts and chant the words, "May everyone everywhere be happy."
Mata Amritanandamayi
