Guest guest Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 I have to agree on this with Anathasree. This is totally where I am- AMMA IS ALL to me. Despite many other things, no one has rocked my world in the way that She has. Amma has said many things over the Guru. How will you know when you have found your guru? Amma replies, "You will know because you fall instantly in love." Amma has also said, "The Guru is even greater than God." To paraphrase more of what She said since I am too lazy to look it up: If you do not have faith in God, faith in the Guru alone is enough to reach enlightenment. The Guru will take you to the goal. The Guru is greater than God. The Guru, a Mahatma, Avatar such as Amma, chooses to take the human body for the sole purpose to uplift humanity. Not all gurus are Avatars or Mahatmas. And I am such a novice on all of this. But one thing I know for sure, I have not ever felt the LOVE as I have experienced from Amma. It makes me feel incredibly humble, incredibly as I am so much of nothing because Her Greatness is so Supreme. Jai Ma...Jai Ma....I bow down to Her Divine Lotus Feet, my beloved Guru. Amma. may Her Divine Grace and Love Shower all of you, adriane Ammachi, "Ananthasree" <ananthasree wrote: > > Namah Shivayah, > > For me, Amma is God. She is the essence.
