Download or read book Abba Amma written by Nicola Slee and published by Canterbury Press. This book was released on 2022-02-28 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord’s Prayer unites Christians of all traditions. It is the first and perhaps only prayer that people learn by heart. However, its patriarchal and kingdom imagery do not resonate universally today. How do we pray the prayer Jesus taught us in ways which are authentic and life-giving? This volume, emerging from years of praying the Lord’s Prayer, offers a series of prayers and poems written in response to it. They wrestle with its central images and bring our own stories and relationships into dialogue with it. Each prayer uses the address Abba or Amma: Aramaic terms of intimate address to God as father or mother which reflect Jesus’ usage, drawing on the abbas and ammas of the Desert Tradition as well as our own parental relationships. It aims to integrate our whole human journey into the vocation of being a follower of Jesus. An extended introduction explores why praying the Lord’s Prayer is significant, how it is problematic, and how contemporary theological reinterpretations offer fresh perspective on it.
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. Published By The Disciples Of Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, Affectionately Known As Mother, Or Amma The Hugging Saint.
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
