"Slowly the hunger to have more and more of this spiritual food [repeating the Divine Name, chanting one's mantra, meditation, etc.] will grow until at last it becomes a terrible hunger. You will want to swallow God. But to attain this, starve the mind. Stop feeding the mind with worldly thoughts and desires." - Amma, Vol.4, p40 Amma Bless, amarnath Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
