Guest guest Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 "I also understand that, lack of faith in Amma's words is intolerable to many of us in the group. So, Iswari, please think twice before you type in your next question." Jai Ma! Perhaps that is Amma's way of testing one's tolerance. I've heard from many long-time devotees She often puts people in unfomfortable situations. I mean, we're all supposed to shed our vasanas, right? What better way to do it than to have them brought out through tension among list-members on this list (or ashramites at the ashram, or familiy members in a family, etc.). This makes me think of Her teaching that there is no difference between any of us and how it can be applied here. Now, if only I could GET it myself - then my mom wouldn't bug me so much because I'd realize she is also Amma.

Guest guest Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 I don't think anyone should be cautious of their questions but that everyone should be conscientious of their replies, and try to be gracefull and understading no matter what. Anyway, here sister Anumati makes a great point, and I agree with her that this is a good learning thread. Jai Ma!

Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 Om Namah Shivaya, The message below makes it look like I wrote that statement, but I didn't. I only quoted it in another message which is where Ramlal picked it up. I didn't want anyone to think I wrote that about Iswari thinking twice before asking a question. Thanks!
