Guest guest Posted April 3, 2001 Report Share Posted April 3, 2001 Dear Divine Siblings, This morning as I was getting ready for work, the thought suddenly came, "Amma, I wouldn't mind all these trials and tribulations so much if I could only feel that you are constantly watching over me and CARE!" Tears welled up in my eyes as I was stricken with this feeling of utter desolation. As if in answer to my feelings, the e-Amritavani carries TWO excerpts from Amma's talks about how God is CONSTANTLY watching over us! Time and again, Amma has patiently asured me every time I am assailed by doubts that She IS looking after us, but this doubting mind never gives up! She has gone to great lengths to comfort me saying, "Don't worry about your doubting moments, that is the very NATURE of the mind. The trick is to not pay any attention." I feel that we are indeed the luckiest of all creatures in the whole creation, for nestling safely in HER lap, we can carry on our games. She will not let us STRAY too far! Thank you, thank you, thank you, my DARLING AMMA! Jai Ma! Chandrika Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's wonderful..... what a blessing! I must say, the e-Amritavani has consistently amazed me as a vehicle for Amma's Wisdom and Love.... each time it shows up in my mailbox, there's at least one or two passages that DIRECTLY speak to what's going on for me at the time, that give me just what I need to carry on. Happy to hear it working that way for others as well. Our Amma is always finding ways to keep Her children near to Her, it seems! Thank you, Amma!

Guest guest Posted April 5, 2001 Report Share Posted April 5, 2001 Oh Chandrika: > Please consider that this is not the truth. For God to be "watching over" implies a separation between God and us. It is a statement that God is not us and we are not God. Please consider that there is NO SEPARATION between God and us. We are God. God is us. Period. It really hurts me that there is so much separation in so called "Christian" churches and in their beliefs. It cetainly was not the teachings of Jesus. Om Amrtesvaryai Namah.

We are God but we are not consistantly aware of this Truth. If there was no place for an externalized form or concept of God, what would we need Amma for? Of course God is ultimately found within, but the power of the ego is such that most of us need more than just ourselves to find Him/Her/It.
