Guest guest Posted January 7, 2004 Report Share Posted January 7, 2004 "When someone steps on a thorn, he becomes upset. But there is a ditch just beyond and the thorn saved him from breaking his leg by falling into the ditch. Because of the thorn in his foot, he took his steps carefully, so he did not fall into the ditch. A devotee must see unhappy experiences in this light." "Heart-felt prayers and acts of atonement, done with devotion, remove ninety percent of the sorrows from one's prarabdha." ~Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi (I saw these quotes in the book, "The Thousand Names of the Divine Mother" and found them most inspiring:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
