The wisdom of the Mahatmas who have come with the mission of uplifting the world has both immediate and eternal meaning. Even though they elucidate values that are everlasting, they are attuned to the call of the times in which they live, and their words are in response to the heartbeat of their listeners.
Mother speaks Her immortal words which transform society at a time when man has lost his traditional values, nobler sentiments and peace of mind, in the frenzied attempt to reinforce the outer world of sensory pleasures, power and prestige. Man’s senseless pursuit of these distractions, oblivious of his own Self, has cost him the harmony and graciousness of his life. Lack of faith, a sense of competition and fear have destroyed personal ties and family relations. Love has become a mirage in a culture of excessive consumerism.
Throughout the world today, the darshan and the nectar like words of Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi are effecting transformations in the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. This book is a precious collection of conversations between the Holy Mother and Her disciples, devotees and inquiring visitors during the period from June 1985 to September 1986.
