Guest guest Posted January 4, 2006 Report Share Posted January 4, 2006 Namah Shivayah, Just my thoughts here... Perhaps the sole purpose for these so-called "unfulfilled predictions" is to provoke conversations like this...and perhaps the seemingly unfulfilled personal predictions serve solely as a test of faith or solely to put questions in the mind of the devotee. Maybe it goes a little something like that. Something called a false prediction could simply be her leela.... Who can comprehend Amma and the things she does and why she does them? It's like trying to grasp a handful of sand. I agree with Georgeson and I am glad someone brought this up. It is an interesting question. Jai Ma!
