Our colored glasses!

833. Om pancasat-pitha-rupinyai namah: I bow down to Amma who has fifty centers of worship.

"Children, to a very large extent, it is the mind that is responsible for making life joyful or sorrowful. We happily welcome experiences that the mind likes, facing all others with resentment and grief and sometimes even anger. If we wear coloured glasses, we will see all objects tinged only with that colour. In a similar way, we view all experiences through the lenses of our likes and dislikes, and thus interpret them as good or bad accordingly.": AMMA

I'm undergoing an experience my mind certainly doesn't like but I also know that hidden within this, are many lessons for my husband and me. And for me towards Amma. I had begun to feel disconnected but I know now that She never let me go. Like an errant child, my Mother let me wander away a little before pulling me back, lock stock, into Her fold. I love Her. I am just waiting for Her grace to flow towards us now!

Om Amriteswariye namah!
