Some beautiful lines I read in www.amritapuri.org:
"If we watch Amma, we will see the embodiment of all the divine qualities she is constantly encouraging us to cultivate. If you want to understand devotion, watch the tears as they roll down her cheeks during bhajans. If you want to learn about serving the world selflessly, sit by her side one evening as she embraces 12,000 people. If you have questions about sadhana, envision her years on the seashore when she sat motionless, completely estranged from the world. And whatever Amma does, it is meditation, whether sitting in silence, speaking to thousands or sweeping the ashram courtyard."
It is probably because of Amma's totally selfless nature that She remains ever youthful. For youth, like every other stage, is ephemeral. But a divine virtue like selflessness lives on forever. It does not reside in the physical plane. Instead, it becomes a part of the soul. And for Amma, Her selflessness is Her. May we always enjoy the grace from such an enlightened Master!
Om Amriteswariye namah!
