Seeing Amma - wasTo Sweta on Amma's physical presence -Linda

[Guest guest]

Namah Shivaya,

The whole time I have known Mother I have been disabled, and have been

able to spend only

limited amounts of time with Her. Like most of us, I would love to be

able to live with Her - first I would

have to have the disposition to be able to do that, but that's another

story. :-) There have been so many times that Mother has shown that She

is with me. Little things that may not mean much, but when they're all

put together, it shows me at least, that She is here, now, and always.

Like the zillion times I have looked for my

keys and finally in utter frustration said aloud "Mother, please help me

find my keys" and presto! there they are under a piece of paper, or just

as I am saying those words it the idea pops into my head to look

somewhere else. I'd say this happens, oh, about 99.9 percent of the time.

Then there was the time I was walking down the street and tripped and

was surely going to smack into the cement and cringing at the thought

and all of a sudden the word "Mother" comes out of my mouth (not

seemingly generated by the brain) and I stopped - upright. It was as if

someone had caught me - I didn't feel Her hand, but I'm sure She did.

And many, many other weird little things that happen that I would have

to be really dense to not see Mother's hand. I truly believe that these

incidents are Mother saying "yes, I am here".

 

This child would love to be able to see Her everywhere and in

everything, but I think I am certainly not on the express bus, but on

the local bus. I get off and check things out and get back on the bus.

She makes Maya too interesting and real. I pray for the day when we can

all see that all is Her in Her wondrous play. She who is writing this

whole script.

In Mother's Love,

Prasadini.
