There are millions and millions of people who are thrown in the midst of poverty and starvation. Animals don't die of starvation, only human beings.
Mata AmritanandamayiThe sun shines down, and its image reflects in a thousand different pots filled with water. The reflections are many, but they are each reflecting the same sun. Similarly, when we come to know who we truly are, we will see ourselves in all people.
Mata AmritanandamayiIf we have been able to give happiness to a soul-even for a minute-it makes our life blessed.
Mata AmritanandamayiA true spiritual seeker should exercise control all the time, throughout the day and night.
Mata AmritanandamayiInstead of "I love you," it would be better to say "I am love-I am the embodiment of Pure Love." Remove the I and you, and you will find that there is only Love. It is as if Love is imprisoned between the I and you. Remove the I and you, for they are unreal; they are self-imposed walls that don't exist. The gulf between I and you is the ego. When the ego is removed the distance disappears and the I and you also disappear. They merge to become one - and that is Love.
