More on Amma Anasuya Devi from Kathy..

[Guest guest]

Dear Friends,

 

I am sorry I have been away for awhile. Kind of frustrated with the

whole thing. Can't even remember if I posted previously on

Anasuya Devi into this group or into the Saadhnaa group. But in any

case, I have not left totally. Any one who would like to email me,

please do so. I think some of my emails never got out when I

replied, due to some malfunctioning on 's part. So if you are

one of the people who previously emailed to me and suddenly did not

hear from me, please do try again.

 

Here are some sayings/quotes by the 'Mother of All' taken from the

book "MOTHER OF ALL" by Richard Schiffman, on the Jillellamud Mother,

Amma Anasuya Devi:

 

"The gods assume various forms and come as incarnations on occasion

to meet different needs. But Mother exists forever and includes

everything within Herself. She who is simultaneously everything and

everywhere is Mother." (p. 3l4)

 

"You ask me: What is your message? I've got nothing of the sort to

offer you, my child. Only if I thought that you were capable of

acting on my words would I give you "a message." In my view, giving

a message isn't telling you to act in a certain way; it is actually

making you do it. The message is what actually happens, not what we

merely talk about abstractly. But since you are asking for words,

here is my message: Eat what you have with contentment, and give what

you have with love and regard to others. And have faith that God is

doing everything." (p. 3l4)

 

"I have all of the same qualities which you have. I am just like

you. They worship me because, owing to their purity of heart, they

see the divine in me. But I am in no way different from you. I

experience pain and pleasure, attachment and bereavement just as you

do. The only difference is that I don't try to shun pain and

sorrow. I abandon myself to them without the least inhibition." (p.

3l6)
