Mata Amritanandamayi Quote

We must turn inwards to search deep within ourselves. Is my heart still vibrant with life? Can I still experience the source of love and compassion within me? Does my heart still melt at the pain and sorrow of others? Have I cried along with those who are suffering? Have I really tried to wipe another's tears to console them or given someone at least a single meal or a set of clothing? Like this, we can honestly introspect. Then the soothing moonlight of compassion will spontaneously shine within our minds.
