840. Om mula-vigraha-rupinyai namah: I bow down to Amma who is the root form of everything.
I guess today's quote from this wonderful facebook account should just about sum up Amma's advice for me:
If a thorn pricks your foot when you walk, you will step more carefully. Thus you may escape falling into a ditch that may be just ahead. God gives us sorrow to save us. True believers will cling to God's feet even in sorrow. In their prayers, they will never ask for happiness. They will never think of selfish gains. But when somebody who suffers comes to us, we should give him solace. We should find time to speak a few comforting words.
Om Amriteswariye namah!
