Digest Number 1411

[Guest guest]

Namah Shivaya, Nandu -

Thank you for pointing this out. I could be wrong about this

person. I assumed since they compared Amma to a tv

evangelist as well as other comments that this person disliked

Amma and was trying to discredit her. My humble apologies

for my reaction.

Blessings,

Achintya

When a disaster in someone's life is averted, I have heard many say

that it was Amma's grace. When something is not averted,

immediately it is stated by many that it is not an avatar's duty, it

is their karma ...

 

Here we have a suggestion that just because this person asked a

question, he is out here to convert etc. An honest question

deserves an honest answer (preferable) or silence, not some BS

about 'if you don't like Amma, get out'. If it turns out later that

this person is only out to discredit Amma, I agree that this person

might find a better forum on ammachi_free_speech_zone or other forum.
