Guest guest Posted April 28, 2004 Report Share Posted April 28, 2004 OM AMRITESWARYAI NAMAH IMMORTAL LIGHT - Miscellaneous Other Thoughts Forgiveness, humility and surrender Only through opening our heart and mind can we find His world which is full of bliss in the midst of this world which is full of hurdles. Children, without a spirit of forgiveness and humility, we cannot know God or earn the guru's grace. The man of courage is one who can forgive even when anger rises uncontrollably. When we press down the button, the umbrella unfolds and gives us protection from rain and sun. But if the button refuses to go down, nothing happens. When the seed goes under the soil, it sprouts and becomes a tree. When it is a tree, we can tie even an elephant to it. But if the seed refuses to surrender, refuses to get out of the seed basket and go underground, it may end up as food for a mouse. Children, if you love Mother, then see Mother in every living thing and love it as such. :: >From the book of Immortal Light - Advice to Householders (english translation of the original Malayalam "Amrita Jyoti") Amma Sharanam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
