Dear GeorgeSon ~ I would never have any problem with anyone defending Amma,

though

I don't believe what She says or does needs any defense. However, being

human, we are inclined to get into discussions that stray into the realm of

value

or truth, and I'm with you. I don't believe we have the eyes to see, nor the

ears to hear to evaluate what Amma says against what may or may not happen.

 

How many disasters would it then take for the "dark clouds" prediction to

seem true to people. For some (and please, Avram, I am not referring to you here

at all), there would never be enough. For others one would be proof.

 

But even after the tsunami, once 2005 had started, there is the killing that

goes on and on due to war, there is the starvation of countless people

unnecessarily in Nigeria, there were those killed or affected by the flooding

in

Mumbai, and now this new disaster of immense proportions.

 

Yes, there are "bad" things that happen each year, but to this degree, in

this number? Many ancient peoples, including some whose relatives still remain

on Earth, such as the Mayan people and the Hopi, and prophets have predicted

that there would be a time when many disasters would befall the Earth and Her

people. Yet, within their predictions, there is also the gem of hope, for,

all their records say, if we can change, the outcome will be different, there

will be peace for Bhu Devi and Her people. So the Hopis dance and dance and

dance ... to maintain the balance. And we, hopefully, pray and pray and pray.

And if only one person changes one thing, that could be the linchpin that

turns the balance. Ho ~ Linda

 

P.S. Many years ago I wrote a song about this seeming duality of life. I

don't recall all the words anymore, but I remember a bit, so I will share what

I

remember.

 

A little bit of sunshine,

a little bit of rain,

keeps this old world

moving 'round again.

 

A little bit of sunshine,

a little bit of rain,

makes the flowers

bloom in the spring.

 

Just like there's up,

you know, there's gotta be down.

And you can't know Silence

without knowing sound.

 

For everything you know,

something's on the other side.

And we're all a part

of the ride.
