Everything is God, there is nothing else but God.
Mata Amritanandamayi

Whatever is associated with the mind is bound to change. The truth is that which is changeless. It is the Self.

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.

Image
Children, don't waste a single second. Serve others, above all the poor, expecting nothing in return. Just as the person who offers God flowers is the first to enjoy their fragrance, the person who offers compassion is the first to receive its blessing. Wherever a heart beats with compassion: God is there.

It is man who, through his thoughts and actions, creates turmoil and disintegration in the natural, harmonious unity of the world.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
The first step in spiritual life is to have compassion. A person who is kind and loving never needs to go searching for God. God rushes toward any heart that beats with compassion-it is God's favorite place.
Mata Amritanandamayi

Controlling the mind is the way to attain internal harmony.
Mata Amritanandamayi

Keep the child within alive. A child never tires of hearing the birds sing, never gets bored looking at flowers.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
Thankfulness is a humble, open and prayerful attitude that helps you receive more of God's grace.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
Compassion can shoulder the suffering of the entire world without feeling the slightest bit of pain.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
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. This way, 1,000 dollars become 100 dollars by the time it reaches the people. Whereas if we get 10 dollars, we add our effort to it and the money multiplies.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
Before death overpowers us, we have great things to accomplish by performing right actions.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
Pray May all reach the shore of peace, spreading the sweet holy fragrance of Love and vibrations of unity and harmony.
Mata Amritanandamayi

Children, if we can do archana of the 1000 Names of the Divine Mother daily with devotion, we will grow spiritually. There will never be lack of life's essentials, food and clothing, in a family that chants the 1000 Names with devotion.
Mata Amritanandamayi

If chanting is not possible during a certain task, then pray before starting it: 'Lord, give Your blessing so that I may do this work in a manner that pleases You!' At the end, pray again to the Lord for forgiving any mistakes we may have committed during the task consciously or otherwise.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
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
Image
Too much reasoning has spoiled the contemporary mind. People have lost their hearts and faith.
Mata Amritanandamayi
Image
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.
