583. Om atma-vidyayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is the knowledge of the self
Knowing ourselves is to know Amma because our true self is the purest there ever is. Our true self is one with the universe. Which is when we begin to question evil. How does it take its ugly seed in a mind? How does it take a shape and form and become from thought to action? What is it that feeds it into existence?
Simple answer is ignorance. Ignorance of the self and ignorance of the knowledge that we are all actually souls inter linked by a love that has been there since the world started. All of us, humans and animals have a deep connection. It is when we forget this that societies fall in disarray. Amma demonstrates to us the power of love every day, with every hug. Love has the power to remove evil, to remove illnesses, to eradicate poverty of thought. The reason we feel so happy in Amma's presence is that Her love is so powerful that each of us feels wanted, feels loved. We should hopefully some day, have the spiritual intelligence to feel this very love for each other. And then what a wonderful world we'd live in!
Om Amriteswariye namah!
