More quotes by 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
One who goes after the taste of the tongue does not get to know the taste of the heart.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Children, we should visit homes of the poor, orphanages and hospitals from time to time. We should take our family members along and offer assistance and look after the welfare of inmates. A word spoken with love and concern will give them more comfort than any amount of money. That will lead to the expansion of our hearts as well.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Children, set aside at least half an hour in the morning and in the evening for spiritual practices. After bathing in the morning, a family should sit together and worship. Archana may be performed by chanting the 108 or 1000 Names of Devi or our chosen deity. We can also chant our mantra, meditate or sing hymns at this time.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Keep the child within alive. A child never tires of hearing the birds sing, never gets bored looking at flowers.
Mata Amritanandamayi

Mata Amritanandamayi
Money is not a problem, but unintelligent attachment to it is.
Mata Amritanandamayi

Mata Amritanandamayi
Learn to be thankful to everyone, to the entire creation, even to your enemy and also to those who insult, because they all help you to grow
Mata Amritanandamayi
At the end of the archana, prostrate, then get up and, remaining on the same spot, turn around clockwise 3 times just as if circling a temple, then bow to the Lord.
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
Loving words and deeds are the best alms.

If we let go of our likes and dislikes, we will become fit vessels to receive the God's ever flowing grace.
