Nature's Fury is not yet abated
1 September 2005 -- Amritapuri
When the night’s bhajans finished, Amma’s
voice came once more over the microphone:
"Amma would like all of her children to pray
for the peace for those who died and for those
who lost their loved ones in the recent stampede
in Iraq and in the flooding in New Orleans caused
by Hurricane Katrina." |
 |
"Pray that the anger and hatred in the hearts of all
those who are creating terror, war and conflict in
the world be transformed into repentance, forgiveness,
understanding and love."
As Amma has said repeatedly since the tsunami, Nature
is clearly out of balance, reacting to the adharmic
(unrighteous) actions of man. "Nature's
fury is not yet abated." Amma asked everyone to
pray so that "what would be a hurricane
be transformed into a gentle breeze."
She then led everyone in the chanting of Om three
times, as well as the chanting of lokah samastah
sukhino bhavantu for several minutes.
