The more intellectual you are, the more egoistic you are, and surrendering becomes more difficult.
Mata AmritanandamayiIf we are not able to fix the Lord firmly in our hearts, even a lifetime of temple-going does not do us any good.
Mata AmritanandamayiIf we have some pet animals, we should feed them also before taking our food. Perceive God in every living being and feed them with that attitude.
Mata AmritanandamayiAmidst sorrows, the only thing that enlivens us is optimistic faith. Never lose that faith.
