Compassion can shoulder the suffering of the entire world without feeling the slightest bit of pain.
Mata Amritanandamayi
It's like pouring oil from one glass to another down a line - in the end, you don't have any oil left it is all stuck to the inside of the glasses.

Mata Amritanandamayi
The intellect always cuts and divides like a pair of scissors. The heart sews things together and unites like a needle. The tailor uses both.

Ashrams and gurukulas (spiritual schools) are the pillars of spiritual culture. If we perform sadhana according to the guru's advice, we need not go anywhere else. We will get whatever we need from the guru.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Children, don't waste a single second. Serve others, above all the poor, expecting nothing in return.

Wherever a heart beats with compassion: God is there.
Mata Amritanandamayi
