Anandamaya Ma, 20th Century, was a Hindu spiritual teacher from Bengal. She was born Nirmala Sundari, April 30, 1896. She was considered a saint and hailed as one of the foremost mystics of the century. Anandamayi means "bliss-permeated mother," a name given by her disciples to refer to her habitual state of divine bliss. Her followers saw her as a manifestation, or avatar, of the Divine Spirit.

"You are Treasured, You are Sacred ... You are Beautiful"

Entering the Inner Sanctuary

Enter this sanctuary time by settling down, becoming quiet, and breathing deeply a few breaths. Remind yourself you are in the Presence of Love. This place you are entering, within, is the inner Temple. Here, you are One with Spirit and all persons, and Nature. You may use a mantra, or prayer phrase, follow the breathing in-and-out, or witness the arising and falling of all around you as the manifestation of universal-Grace. Enjoy these moments of Quiet and come out when you are ready. The following video is provided, for those who would like meditative music to accompany your Quiet contemplation:

Mother Meera, born Kamala Reddy on December 26, 1960, is believed by her devotees to be an embodiment, or avatar, of the Divine Mother, or Shakti.

When you
are drawn powerfully

to a woman
as though by a hidden force
pure and loving, graceful

do not just think
you are drawn to her
as she appears to your eyes

She is embodying
for you the Divine Mother

Respect her as such
An incarnation of Divine Love

*Arem Nahariim-Samadhi. March 29.2011.

Realizing the truth that woman embodies the Divine Mother, man cannot rightly objectify her, or just use her for his satisfaction - like a sexual object ... And a woman cannot disrespect herself, treating herself as an object for man, but will seek to think and act as an icon of the Mother and Her Graces for all...
