I can never refuse anyone who addresses me as Mother.

The happiness of the world is transitory. The less you become attached to the world, the more you enjoy peace of mind.

Don't puzzle the mind with too many inquiries. One finds it difficult to put one single thing into practising, but dares invite distraction by filling the mind with too many things.

One must be patient like the earth. What iniquities are being perpetuated on her! Yet she quietly endures them all.

Let me tell you how to love all equally. Do not demand anything of those you love. If you make demands, some will give you more and some less. In that case you will love more those who give you more and less those who give you less. Thus your love will not be the same for all. You will not be able to love all impartially.

As clouds are blown away by the wind, the thirst for material pleasures will be driven away by the utterance of the Lord's name.

In one word, one should desire of God desirelessness. For desire alone is at the root of all suffering. It is the cause of repeated births and deaths. It is the obstacle in the way of liberation.
