Absolutely nothing can totally or wholly encapsulate who or what Amma is. Who is Amma? A Mother? A loving Guru and Guide? Is there also a Goddess there? To me, Amma is a Guru, Guide, Mother, Confidant, Friend, Punching bag, the Pillow I weep into, the Listening ear, Goddess. She's also a Philosopher, Doctor, Psychologist, Healer, Keeper of Secrets. There is no richter scale or vernier caliper that can measure Amma's spiritual divinity. There is nothing that can weigh out Amma's love for us. She is immeasurable even by the senses because there is no means of measuring goodness yet. Amma is a concept, She is a thought, divinity, love cloaked in compassion. And when all these virtues blend together, Amma sits before us in all Her glory. She reflects in many ways. A fleeting smile from a stranger; a helping hand from a friend; a reassuring hug from your child. Amma's always there for us in Her most mysterious ways. While we do not have the eyes to see Her in all Her splendor, we can only pray to Amma to give us the grace to finally be able to see Amma for what She truly is: a splendid reflection of the universe.
Om Amriteswariye namah!
