Before embracing Dharma, my suffering felt endless. My mind would cling to painful memories, holding them close in my heart for months and even years. But with the teachings and processes of Amma Bhagavan, I’ve begun to see how the mind truly operates. This understanding has brought a profound shift within me, drastically reducing my suffering. Now, those past incidents no longer linger as they once did.
I used to struggle to make decisions, constantly wrestling with inner conflict and confusion. Now, whenever I feel indecisive, I simply call upon Amma Bhagavan, and clarity soon follows. Comparisons with others still arise, but they are far fewer, and the hurt that once stayed with me now fades quickly, often within moments. The emotional charge I once felt toward people or incidents has lifted, and the grip of guilt has begun to soften. While fear concerning my family remains, it has completely disappeared in other areas of my life. My judgments of others have also lessened significantly.
Unnecessary thoughts do still cross my mind, yet my awareness of them has grown, and they trouble me far less. A deepening silence and joy now fills me, especially in the sacred spaces of the puja room or Amma Bhagavan temple, where I feel the powerful presence of Paramjyoti Amma Bhagavan. My energy levels have also risen; I no longer tire as quickly, and I’m able to accomplish much more with ease and efficiency.
Compassion has blossomed within me, allowing me to connect with the pain and suffering of others, and I can genuinely pray for them. For all these extraordinary changes and the gift of mukti states, I offer my heartfelt gratitude to Paramjyoti Amma Bhagavan. Forever, I remain at the Divine Lotus Feet of Sri Paramjyoti Amma Bhagavan.
