Mata Amritanandamayi

Mata Amritanandamayi
Today, our air, food, water-all are polluted. If we do not stop exploiting nature for our temporary selfish gains, we will destroy the world.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Let our lives be firmly rooted in Truth. Abstain from lies. In this dark age of materialism, adherence to truth is the greatest austerity. We might have to tell lies now and then to protect somebody or to sustain dharma, but we must be careful not to speak lies for our own selfish purposes.
Mata Amritanandamayi
If you have patience, then you'll also have love. Patience leads to love. If you forcefully open the petals of a bud, you won't be able to enjoy its beauty and fragrance. Only when it blossoms by following its natural course, will the beauty and fragrance of a flower unfold.
Mata Amritanandamayi
A seed has to get buried in the soil for its real form as a plant to emerge. Only through modesty and humility can we grow. Pride and conceit will only destroy us. Live with the firm attitude, 'I am everyone's servant.' Then the whole universe will bow down to us.
Mata Amritanandamayi
In most cases, worldly love ends in hatred and deep sorrow.
Mata Amritanandamayi

Mata Amritanandamayi
As you help those in need, selfishness will fall away. And, without even noticing you will find your own fulfillment.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Children, those who are unmarried should conserve their vital energy by maintaining celibacy. To turn what we gain by this in to ojas (vitality), we also need to do spiritual practice. With increase in ojas, our intelligence, memory, health and beauty will also increase. We will gain lasting mental quietude.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Just beneath the surface of all experiences in life is God's, or the Guru's, compassionate face.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Keep the child within alive. A child never tires of hearing the birds sing, never gets bored looking at flowers.
Mata Amritanandamayi
The guru is not someone who is confined to the body. When there is selfless love for the guru, we will be able to see him not only in his body but in every living and nonliving thing in this world. Learn to see everything as the guru's body and to serve them accordingly.
Mata Amritanandamayi
