That is really what each of us has within us: some male and some female qualities. When we forget the other part of us, we forget to show respect and compassion towards others and the harmony and balance in nature goes out of line. Life is all about keeping a balance. A balance of mind and heart; intellect and spirituality. When we allow anyone to rule, things may not go quite the way the universe has deemed right. Intellect without spirituality is meaningless. Spirituality without intellect will get us nowhere. I love the fact that Amma, despite being a Goddess with the power of the universe, is still so practical in Her approach. People who go to Her with medical problems will always be told to follow what the Doctor has said. A miracle isn't something Amma hands over and says will be the solver of all problems. That is for Amma to bestow on us as added grace. Amma prefers us to take a practical and correct approach to life. Weigh out options and not depend on Amma to give us a blanket protection without doing anything ourselves. Her advice is always simple. Amma's approach to us is also so uncomplicated. She never judges or sees us as anything but children who need Her love. And I'm glad that's how it is. For who would't want a mother who is practical and yet loves us ever so dearly?
Thank You Amma for just being.
Om Amriteswariye namah!
