819. Om sarvantar-yaminyai namah: I bow down to Amma who dwells inside all.
Exactly what we should be doing this diwali:
"Try to lead a happy life with what you have. If you have more, give it to the poor and needy. For example, if you have twenty sarees, why can’t you give at least two of them to those who don’t even have one good saree? Sometimes rich people will purchase two or three sarees a day and then nicely arrange them in their closet. Every morning they will look at them and feel happy about their great achievement. Children, just think for a moment. Is this the right way to live? Thousands of people are thrown in the midst of poverty and starvation while we go on enjoying. If all are God’s children, then the poor are also His children. If so, they are our brothers and sisters who came from the womb of the same Mother. Instead of creating more and more negativity by trying to fulfill desires, why can’t you help the poor?": AMMA
Om Amriteswariye namah!
