W e should serve others without any expectations whatsoever. When others throw thorns at us, we should be able to throw flowers back at them.

quote 5441 | Amirthanandamayi

O ur highest, most important duty in this world is to help our fellow beings.

quote 5429 | Amirthanandamayi

W hen there are no desires, there are no sorrows. We must be able to love without expecting anything in return, or without expecting anything from anyone else. We must always be thinking that we are the servants of all.

quote 5427 | Amirthanandamayi

T he common expression is ‘I love you.’ But instead of ‘I love you,’ it would be better to say, ‘I am love — I am the embodiment of pure love.’ Remove the I and you, and you will find that there is only love. It is as if love is imprisoned between the I and you. Remove the I and you, for they are unreal; they are self-imposed walls that don’t exist. The gulf between I and you is the ego. When the ego is removed the distance disappears and the I and you also disappear. They merge to become one — and that is love. You lend the I and you their reality. Withdraw your support and they will disappear. Then you will realise, not that ‘I love you,’ but that ‘I am that all-embracing love.’

quote 5419 | Amirthanandamayi

N o one is completely bad in this world. However bad someone is said to be, there will be something good in him. One of you could see the good in a murderer, a robber, and a prostitute. If there is goodness in us, we will also see it in others. Those are the kind of eyes we need.

quote 5412 | Amirthanandamayi

I t is at the base of the lighthouse that it is the darkest. A mosquito will never get milk from the udder of a cow, only blood. The bee draws honey from the flower, but the beetle only drubs through the dirt.

quote 5393 | Amirthanandamayi

W hen a poet sees a flower, he will write poetry about it; a scientist will conduct research on it; a boyfriend will give it to his girlfriend; a worm will eat it; a devotee of God will offer it to God. Similarly, each person comes with his own attitude. It’s their right.

quote 5382 | Amirthanandamayi

T he first step in spiritual life is to have compassion. A person who is kind and loving never needs to go searching for God. God rushes toward any heart that beats with compassion; it is God’s favourite place.
