Guest guest Posted June 23, 2003 Report Share Posted June 23, 2003 I'm sharing some info about Ammachi, who is going to be in Los Angeles this week, June 24-28, for anyone who is interested and able to attend. Here is a quote from her acceptance speech for the Gandhi King Peace Award she was given last year at The Global Peace Initiative of Women Spiritual and Religious Leaders: "Anyone -- woman or man -- who has the courage to overcome the limitations of the mind can attain the state of universal motherhood. The love of awakened motherhood is a love and compassion felt not only towards one's own children, but towards all people, animals and plants, rocks and rivers -- a love extended to all of nature, to all beings. This love, this motherhood, is Divine Love -- and that is God. " And here's a link to an article on her website: http://www.ammachi.org/in-the-media/gandhi-king-award.html Program Contact: 310.226.6979 June 24 - 25 Tues. - Wed.
