Amma, eternal!

174. Om nir-bhavayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is without origin


Amma, Devi. She has no end. No origin. Nothing to tie Her down to a specific time line. Because Amma is the very embodiment of eternity. She is eternal in every sense. She always was, She is, and She always will be. She is the ultimate, fantastical truth about this world. And the good news is something spirituality itself teaches us. That we are one. There is no duality because in duality lies fear, anger, frustration. We are one. Our atmans are one and so, in Amma, we live. In us, Amma lives. Eternally, without origin. Forever.

There are times in our lives (quite often, actually) when we wonder about our mortality. We are aware of our physical mortality and thus from a fear of death arises many other fears and worries. We panic at anything that may even threaten to terminate our tenure here on Earth. We fear losing our loved ones. In all, we spend many moments wrapped in this massive fear. But if for a moment we just let go and realized this oneness, we would know that we are a soul that's been there since time began. We beat with the same rhythm. We pulse with the same divinity.

Amma trusts the universe and it's plan for Her. Amma is the universe. Thus also, we should trust Amma's plans for us. For who is without origin and who is eternity itself, will only paint our story on the grandest of canvases, with the brightest of colors!

Om Amriteswariye namah!
