Mata AmritanandamayiFirst, the human mind should be harmonized, then the harmony of Nature will spontaneously take place.

Mata AmritanandamayiIf we lose our money while traveling, think how frantically we search for it! In the same way, if we are unable to do japa even for a brief moment, we should grieve: 'Alas, Lord, I have lost so much time!' If there is such anguish, even the time we spend sleeping will not be wasted.
