Mata Amritanandamayi Quotes about Knowledge

  • The indicator of true knowledge is the ability to differentiate what uplifts us from what pulls us down.
  • Make use of radio, TV and films discriminatively; only for programs that will enhance our knowledge and culture. Television is tele-visham (tele-poison, in Malayalam). If we are not careful, it can corrupt our culture, damage our eyes and drain away our time.
  • Just as armor protects the soldier, spiritual knowledge protects us from the difficulties of life.
