Amma Says
- ... When everyone’s bodies and faces are smeared with colours, all external differences disappear; everyone looks the same. True happiness and love arise only when all the boundaries created by the mind vanish. You see yourself everywhere." - ₳₥₥₳ 2/2 #holi #HappyHolipic.twitter.com/rjUOWRQ34n
- "Holi signifies boundless happiness. As we enjoy such sacred festivities, we should remember that, in reality, they are meant to remind us of the inner bliss and oneness that are our inherent nature and are the very essence of life.... 1/2 #HappyHoli #Holipic.twitter.com/vj9Jzo66nl

- Technology is a good servant but a dangerous master. For many people, relationships have become confined to the numbers in the phone. Then we pawn our very consciousness to the unconscious machine. We should use machines and love people. - #Ammapic.twitter.com/uChPGV9dz9
- Looking back at our past, we should take stock of ourselves. And with an eye to the future, we should engage in positive actions. - #Ammapic.twitter.com/S9uDHgkgv7
- The more space we create in our heart for others, the more happiness and contentment we feel. The law of the universe, and of life, is selflessness. This is why selfish and egoistic people are unable to enjoy life wholeheartedly and be happy. #Ammapic.twitter.com/yR4lYMxlh5
