587. Om sri-sodasaksari-vidyayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is in the form of the sixteen-syllabled mantra
From an article in www.amritapuri.org and an excerpt from a talk by our beloved Amma:
"This is Sri Krishna’s message: Life should flow incessantly like a melodious song. Just as the dancer becomes one with the dance, we should allow our life to become one with its incessant flow—making it a blissful confluence of happiness, beauty, compassion and creativity. The flow of a river is musical, beautiful and blissful. It accepts everyone, treating everyone the same. Whether people use it for drinking or bathing, whether they worship it, spit in it or dump waste into it, it doesn’t discriminate against them. This was the message of Sri Krishna’s life as well.
May the divine teachings of Sri Krishna inspire my children to use their bodies, emotions and intellects in the service of others. May my children see themselves in everyone, and see everyone in themselves. May divine grace bless all of my children."
That's exactly what Amma's made of Her life: an incessant flow of love and compassion towards Her children. Being with Her is to take in this beauty and enjoy the bliss of Her presence!
Om Amriteswariye namah!
