Prayer Song to Mother


We live like fish
...

I am the mother of the wicked, as I am the mother of the virtuous. Never fear. Whenever you are in distress, say to yourself, 'I have a mother.'
Shri Sarada Devi

Unsolicited Grace
...

In this universe it is love that binds everything together. Love is the very foundation, beauty and fulfillment of life.

Mata Amritanandamayi
-------
...

The mother is everything - she is our consolation in sorrow, our hope in misery, and our strength in weakness. She is the source of love, mercy, sympathy, and forgiveness. He who loses his mother loses a pure soul who blesses and guards him constantly.

Kahlil Gibran

….and His mother followed Him, whom even a yogi’s mind, well conditioned by practice and austerity, fails to reach without His grace!

Bhagavatam 10: 9
...

Questioner: “Amma, you hug everyone; who hugs you? ”

Amma: “The entire creation hugs amma; Amma and creation are in eternal embrace! ”
...

You should be like the Sun, not like the firefly;
Fireflies make light merely for their own needs;
Selflessness is all you should ever wish for;
You should be the ones who raise their hands to help others, even at the moment of your death!
...

(Today is the second death anniversary day of my eldest sister who was our mother and the force behind this person writing this episode; I pray Amma to bless the soul of my great sister who was also a symbol of love and sacrifice)
“Don't be afraid. Human birth is full of suffering and one has to endure everything patiently, taking the name of God. None, not even God in human form, can escape the sufferings of body and mind. “

”I tell you one thing my child - if you want peace, do not find fault with others. Rather, see your own faults”

Hushed Silence


Being unwanted, unloved, uncared for, forgotten by everybody, I think that is a much greater hunger, a much greater poverty than the person who has nothing to eat.

No matter how deeply one immerses oneself in work, a haunting feeling of inescapable tragedy persists
Albert Einstein in a letter to queen Elizabethof Belgium dt 9 1 1939
It was as if the ground had been pulled out from under one, with no firm foundation to be seen anywhere, upon which one could have built…….Albert Eintein on “ Quantum”

Wherever a man turns he can find someone who needs him. ~Albert Schweitzer

...

From all these experiences I clearly understood that the world is full of sorrow; we have no true relations, for all our relatives love us only to fulfil their selfish needs; only God loves us with selfless love……………….Mata Amritanandamayi
