747. Om bhakta-citta-keki-ghanaghanayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is like the cloud that gladdens the peacocks for Her devotees' hearts.
Once again a day wherein I am unable to think. A day where I wonder where Amma is and if She really is looking out for me. What tests You put us through, Amma...and yet, You are the fountain of optimism, from which I have the good fortune to take a sip!
The words below were spoken by Amma to the survivors of the terrible tsunami in Japan:
"You have just been through painful experiences, and you have yet to come out of that shock. The situation is such that no words can give you peace. Amma is here just to part take in the grief that you are going through. There are certain situations in life where you cannot do anything but accept. This is one of those situations. If you ask a musician where the music is coming from, he would say ‘its from my fingers, or from my throat, or from my heart’. If you operate the finger, the throat or the heart you will not find music. Actually music is coming from beyond. We have to understand the limitations of our actions, and the place of God’s Grace in our life. Keeping faith in that power, my children, pray for the Grace. Like any other decision, happiness is also a decision. Have a resolve, let any thing happen, I will be happy, I will be courageous. Without losing the self-confidence or faith in God, move forward”.
Happiness is also a decision!!
Om Amriteswariye namah!
