557. Om kala-hantryai namah: I bow down to Amma who is the destroyer of time (death)
Amma is the ultimate destroyer of TIME. I can't comment on the metaphysical level but for me, all I notice is how timeless the world seems when at an Amma programme. There is no concept of the digital or analog. All movements of the universe get connected to Amma. The time when Amma will arrive, when darshan starts, when it is my turn to get darshan, when Amma will leave. That's the clock that ticks when Amma is around. And suddenly, nothing else matters in our landscape but a vision, a look at our dearest Amma. It's like even the non conforming time slinks away to make way for the divine creator. Amma's presence helps us achieve states of no-mind, where Time truly takes a back seat. It is when we kill our ego that we destroy time and are able to live in a blissful state of timelessness where all we need do is dwell on our beautiful Mother.
Some beautiful words from Amma: “If one loves a true master, this will mean sorrow. If we fall in love with the master it is like falling in love with the sun, or the moon. This is because the master does not belong to anyone. Due to our ego, we believe that Amma is only our own, and this will undoubtedly lead to sorrow on the outside, but inside it builds the fire of tapas (heat), which burns the ego. The master, or the Mahatma works with the seeker until his/her impurities are burned away.”
Amma continued saying, “When we fall in love with an Avatar we will go beyond the body consciousness. With this fire of love, we can cook sweet pudding to offer at the feet of the Supreme. However, the love we have for fleeting objects just keeps burning and no good comes of it. Outside love is attachment, internal love is detachment. Amma, however, is attached to Her children, but it is an internal attachment.”
Om Amriteswariye namah!
