Divine Mother's Message

Amma answers questions on why She doesn't get tired giving darshan, on Her feelings towards those who oppose Her and on why She continues to pray even though She is Self-realized.


Effort and Grace, Part One

As Amma says, "No matter what our aims and ambitions are, to succeed we need two things: The first is the right kind of effort, which should be made at the appropriate time. The second is God's grace." By Swami Ramakrishnananda.


The Guru's Grace: In the Service of Love, No. 45

"Mother usually responds to our prayers and our earnestness," writes Tulasi in this diary entry. "I have often found that if I prayed hard to Mother for detachment, I would receive a lesson shortly thereafter, whether I liked it or not!"


Amma Is Always With You

"Attachment to a Mahatma, Satguru or God-realized soul such as Mother is different from attachments to other things," says Brahmacharini Nirmalamrita Chaitanya in this satsang. "Through our attachment to Mother, our attachments to the things of the world drop away."
