Guest guest Posted May 18, 2006 Report Share Posted May 18, 2006 SofA your words reminded me of these two quotes i recently read. On Amma: It may be easy for you to love Mother, but that is not enough. Try to see Mother in everyone. Oh, my Children, don't think that Mother is confined to this body alone. - Ammachi God: Children, God-Realization and Self-Realization are the same. The ability to love all, broadmindedness and equanimity, this is God- Realization. - Ammachi Ammachi, "temba spirits" <tembaspirits> wrote: > > also dear brother.when you make comments about being present when AMMA is > dressing ,you are associating HER with ONLY her body..again it is a question > of faith ,because in all honesty, if AMMA is dressing right now,this child > believes that he and ALL of HER childen are right there in HER HEART... > AMMAs sun is open minded ,however he will not move from this belief . > > AMMAs sun prays with all of his heart that these words find a warm place in > someones elses... > > > > > > > > >"Mahamuni Das" <mahamuni> > >Ammachi > ><Ammachi> > >Re: Re: Vegetarianism - a twist in the tale > >Thu, 18 May 2006 13:30:18 -0700 > > > >Why would you think that Amma does not have any private life or that She > >does not deserve some privacy?
