And the world lives as one...!

239. Om candra-vidyayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is the embodiment of Candravidya


Imagine all the people
Living for today...

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace...


John Lennon sang this song in 1971 by which time Amma's spiritual identity was already being established. He just hadn't met Amma and realized Her overpowering divinity. I heard the song again today and realized that Imagine, is set in Amma's world. Imagine all the people living for today: yes, that's exactly what Amma tells u to do. Live in the present moment. 'Imagine there's no countries'...It truly isn't hard to do. In Amritapuri and at any of Amma's programs, there are no citizens of various countries. There are just Amma's children. 'Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion too'...All Amma teaches, is Love. Amma celebrates Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism. There is no binding religion. Just a spirituality that roots for humanity and compassion. 'Imagine all the people, living life in peace'. That's how Amma and Her swamis and swaminis live. That's how beautiful Amma has made Amritapuri. The ashram is a sacred sanctum sanctorum. It's where Amma's children go to for rejuvenation from the worldly humdrum. It's where we take a break and think. It's where the holiest of the holy Masters, Amma, resides. It's the place where no one needs to Imagine. Because all the beauty one wants, is all there. 

Om Amriteswariye namah!
