Every festival that is dedicated to the female power of the universe, be it Lakshmi, Sarasvati, Durga, Shakti, Kali - every moment is a dedication to the compassion and love of Amma. She rules not by Her fist but by Her embrace. She never needs use of a crude word to get attention. Instead, Her words laced with genuine love and concern are always enough to awaken the deeper consciousness in each of us. We become more attuned to the spiritual world. Suddenly a lot of things lose their edge and it seems so much calmer to renunciate most material thoughts and think of Amma. I am lucky to know a lot of wonderful people who, through Amma, have decided to dedicate their lives to the betterment of others. One such person Amma has given me the honor of knowing is Lalitha chechi who serves nature. She is a true nature lover who will walk the extra mile to make the planet a better place. She is always nice, kind and compassionate. She is the perfect example of the perfect devotee mirroring the teachings of the Guru. Lalitha chechi's hands are always working at serving either nature or other people. Some days, I wish I had Lalitha chechi's resolve and faith. Maybe one day, when Amma showers me with Her infinite grace, I will!
Om Amriteswariye namah!
