Download or read book Mata Amritanandamayi a Biography written by and published by M.A. Center. This book was released on 2018-10-28 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Smiling, the Divine Mother became an effulgence and merged in me. My mind blossomed, bathed in the many-hued light of Divinity, and the events of millions of years gone by rose up within me. Thenceforth, seeing nothing as apart from my own Self, a single Unity, and merging in the universal Mother of Bliss, I gave up the notion that there is happiness apart from the Self." It is in these inspiring words that the Holy Mother, Mata Amritanandamayi, describes Her realization of oneness with the Divine while yet in Her teens. This book, Mata Amritanandamayi, vividly portrays the Mother's courage and intense devotion to God in the face of attacks by Her unsympathetic relatives and hostile detractors who sought to destroy Her, as they feared the changes brought about by Her universal love. From Her childhood itself, Amma was endowed with an ineffable love for God, and She immersed Herself in that quest, even without a Guru. Treated as a servant by Her family, the Mother continued in that role until Her conscious absorption in the bliss of God-Realization made it impossible for Her to discharge Her endless chores. Crazy to all appearances, the Mother spent Her time in meditation, devotional singing and dancing, totally absorbed in God Consciousness. In due course, may sincere seekers of Self-Realization sought Her out in Her remote village in Southern India and found guidance and gained the strength to walk in the spiritual path. Millions have come for a glimpse of the Holy Mother and received comforting reassurance and love. Those that have seen Her have experienced the wonderful healing and rejuvenating effect of the unconditional love that Mothers showers on all. This Book Is In English.

Download or read book Holy Hell written by Gail Tredwell and published by . This book was released on 2013-10-31 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Amma, universally known as "The Hugging Saint," went through a two-decade transformation from a simple fisherman's daughter to an international wonder worshiped by millions. Gail "Gayatri" Tredwell was there every step of the way--from early devotee to head female disciple, ever-present personal attendant, handmaiden, whipping post, and unwilling keeper of some devastating secrets. Because she became fluent in the Malayalam language and had continual intimate proximity to Amma for twenty years, Tredwell is uniquely capable of portraying this famous woman. She tells her tale with straightforward honesty, fairness, and a dash of Aussie snap and wit. Although the guru's flaws are a necessary part of her story and awakening, she strives to be factual throughout, digging deep to eschew victim frameworks and take responsibility for her own role in accepting the abuse and perpetuating the lies. Tredwell takes us vividly through her varying stages, starting with naïveté and innocent devotion, then on to dawning awareness and confusion, finally to emotional breakdown and her shocking "enlightenment"--her realization that the liberation she urgently required was is in fact liberation from her own guru

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Elizabeth Skoglund is right--the overall effect of Amy Carmichael's writings is comfort. Not the soft, pat-on-the-back sort, but the original cum fortis, meaning 'to stand alongside and strengthen.'" --Ruth Bell Graham, best-selling author "The books and poems of Amy Carmichael have been a great inspiration to me through the years. They have a cherished and prominent place in my library. All are well worn by frequent use in my own devotional life and ministry. However, I never fully appreciated the person behind these profound and incisive thoughts until I read Elizabeth Skoglund's remarkable book, Amma: The Life and Words of Amy Carmichael. The author, an outstanding counselor and distinguished writer, presses her own sensitive and responsive heart next to Amy's, and the result is a book dealing with the crucial issues of life today. You will meet the real Amy Carmichael, and her words will give you courage and strength in suffering, pain, discouragement, spiritual burnout, and most important of all, in how to maintain a vital trust relationship with the Lord as you live and work for Him by His power. This book will move you deeply. You will keep it close at hand and reread it often. It's crammed full of authentic hope, true comfort, and powerful inspiration." --Loyd John Ogilvie, former chaplain of the U.S. Senate "Elizabeth Skoglund has succeeded in drawing a very true picture of Amma herself and the values that were vitally important to her." --Nancy E. Robbins, MD, attending physician for the last five years of Amma's life
