Amma's Message

"Love is a universal religion, and this is what society really needs. Love should be expressed through our every word and action."

"We already have this love within us in all its fullness. Life cannot exist without love. Life and love are inseparable; they are one and the same."

"Children, we shouldn't allow the beauty and grace of selfless love and service to be wiped off the face of the earth. The world should know that a life dedicated to selfless love and service to humanity is possible."

"Lending a helping hand to a neglected soul, feeding the hungry, giving the sad and dejected a compassionate smile — this is the language of love. Let us focus on what we can give to others, for only then will we experience deep joy and fulfillment in life."

"No matter how rich we are, as long as we have no compassion, we, ourselves, are truly living in utter poverty. If we are compassionate towards our fellow beings, it is like gold with a fragrance, something utterly unique. Its value is beyond all words."

"There is one Truth that shines through all of Creation. Rivers and mountains, plants and animals, the sun, the moon and the stars, you and I — all are expressions of this one Reality."

"By establishing a loving relationship between humankind and Nature, we ensure both the balance of Nature and the progress of the human race."

The Thing of Everything

For greater clarity, I've slightly expanded my "Thing Theory."
(It's now fifty words!) :)
I've also given it a new title:

The Thing of Everything

Anything is many things*.

Each and every thing — everything — is something else,
so nothing is anything exclusively.

Including everything is the Thing of Everything.

* The scope of “things” is all-inclusive, including all words and all meanings, all thoughts and all theories, from philosophy to physics, from politics to spirituality.

Cheers!

Everything is something else, so nothing is anything exclusively.

Including everything is the Thing of Everything.
