Amma Discussion - Awaken Children - Volume VII, Chapter Two - The Mind is Mad
Nov 11, 2025 1:00pm-2:00pm
Today, instead of watching a video we will be discussing a passage from the book:
Awaken Children! Volume VII
The section we will be discussing is Chapter 2 -The Mind is Mad
This chapter begins with:
Mother was chatting with the brahmacharins and a few householder devotees. A question was asked by one of the brahmacharins.
"Amma, if we truly are the Atman, why is it so difficult to experience the truth?"
Mother replied, "Truth is always the most difficult thing and at the same time, the easiest. For ignorant and egoistic people, it is the most difficult thing to know, and for those who are inquisitive and have a burning desire to know, it is the easiest."
Time: 1 pm to 2 pm
Zoom Access: Please email Veda for login access information.
Discussion: You are warmly invited to join us for this discussion. It is helpful to have read the passage, but not necessary.
Purchase: You may purchase this book through Amazon
Progress can be slow and gradual. Continue putting in effort with patience, enthusiasm and faith ~ Amma
