The factor stringing together individuals, society and nature is missing from today's educational system. That factor is spiritual values.
Mata AmritanandamayiLearn to be thankful to everyone, to the entire creation, even to your enemy and also to those who insult, because they all help you to grow
Mata AmritanandamayiToday people live to work rather than work for a living. They have forgotten their true goal in life. Subsequently they have forgotten their dharma. There is no communication between hearts, there is no sharing. Having lost contact with other's hearts, we become totally isolated. But in truth we are not isolated islands, we are links that form one chain.
Mata AmritanandamayiEach and every object in Nature teaches us something. Renunciation and selflessness are the greatest lessons to learn from Nature.
Mata AmritanandamayiMeditation increases our vitality and strengthens our intelligence. Our beauty is enhanced and our mental accuracy and health are improved. We gain the mental fortitude and patience to face life's problems. Meditate! Only through meditation can we find the treasure we're looking for.
Mata AmritanandamayiPure love removes all negative feelings. Destroying all selfishness, it expects nothing but gives anything. Pure love is a constant giving up- giving up of everything that belongs to you. What really belongs to you? Only the ego. Love consumes in its flames all preconceived ideas, prejudices and judgments, all those things which stem from the ego. Pure love is nothing but the emptying of the mind of all its fears and the tearing off of all masks. It exposes the Self as it is.
