Amma Quote

[Guest guest]

"But if the goal is to realize the Supreme Being, you should become

completely egoless. That requires self-effort. The sadhak himself

must pray sincerely for the removal of his negative tendencies. He

should work hard. This prayer is not to achieve anything or to

fulfill any desire. It is to go beyond all achievements; it is to

transcend all desires. It is an intense longing of the sadhak to

return to his original and real abode. He feels and becomes aware of

the burden of his own ego, and this feeling creates a strong urge to

unburden its heaviness. It is this urge which expresses itself as

prayer." - Ammachi, Awaken Children, Vol.5, p33 (0365)
