Taking refuge in a Guru!

881. Om yajna-priyayai namah: I bow down to Amma who is fond of sacrifices and other rituals.

"God is definitely within you. There is a treasure chest full of diamonds within you; but not being aware of this, you have been searching for them outside of yourself. The key to that chest is in your possession, but because it hasn't been used for a long time, it has become rusty. You have to polish it to remove the rust and open the treasure chest. It is for this that we approach the guru. If you wish to know God, you have to eliminate the ego by taking refuge in a guru, and by obeying the guru with humility and surrender.": AMMA

Om Amriteswariye namah!
