603. Om guru-murtaye namah: I bow down to Amma who has assumed a severe form, who has assumed the form of the Guru.
Our Guru is a true visionary. In this article, Amma looks at the feminine aspect in society and the role of women:
"In her address, 'The Infinite Potential of Women,' Amma called on the need for women and men to come together in unity, accepting, respecting and valuing each other’s differences. 'Alienating women from matters of finance and politics is to discard half of the intellect and strength of society,' Amma said.
Amma also stressed the importance of women holding on to their innate femininity and qualities associated with motherhood. 'It’s true that women must move forward, but they also need to turn back to consider the child following in their footsteps, not discarding their parental responsibilities. For the sake of her children, a mother should have at least some patience. It’s not enough to give a baby space in her womb; she must also give it space in her heart.'"
Thank You Amma for teaching me a valuable lesson today. I needed this one!
Om Amriteswariye namah!
