More quotes by Mata Amritanandamayi
Contribute to charitable projects like the printing of spiritual books so that they can be sold at a lower price. Poor people will then be able to buy and read them. In this way we can help to cultivate spiritual culture in them also.
Mata Amritanandamayi
We must remember that man is not an island, totally isolated and disconnected from others. We are all part of a universal chain, or the universal consciousness. What happens to one happens to all.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Children, do not listen to those who malign masters and sages. Never listen to or indulge in derogatory talk about anyone. When we harbor negative thoughts about others, our minds become impure.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Death is not complete annihilation. It is a pause. It is like pressing the pause button on a tape recorder.
Mata Amritanandamayi
We should try our best to relieve the suffering of others in whatever way we can.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Our efforts to remove hatred and indifference from the world begin by trying to remove them from our own mind.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Children, even if we lose a million dollars, we can recover it. If we lose one second, we cannot get it back. Every moment that we are not remembering God is lost to us.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Children, everyone should try to wake up before five in the morning. The ideal time for spiritual practices like meditation and chanting is Brahma Muhurta. During this period, sattvic qualities are predominant in nature. Moreover, the mind will be clear and body energetic.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Keep the child within alive. A child never tires of hearing the birds sing, never gets bored looking at flowers.
Mata Amritanandamayi
For a true disciple, the repetition of the mantra is like food.
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
Look at Nature. Nature is a book from which we must learn. Each object in it is a page of that book.
Mata Amritanandamayi
God is standing at the door of every heart. Call Him. He is waiting to come in.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Each and every living being in nature is part of God's body.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Just as our bodies need proper food to live and develop, our souls need love to blossom. The strength and nourishment that love can give our souls is even more potent than the nourishing power of a mother's milk for a baby.
Mata Amritanandamayi
What makes Amma happy, is to see her children helping others to feel happy.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Whatever work we do, our mind should be centered on God.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Everything is God, there is nothing else but God.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Transcending the cycle of death and rebirth is the real purpose of this life in human form.
Mata Amritanandamayi
...love is our true nature. When we do not express love in our words and actions it is like honey hidden in a rock.
