We meditate on Mata Amritanandamayi, who is
robed in pure white attire, shining brilliantly,
who is ever established in Truth,
FB/AmmaChimes
..whose kind glances beam with binding love,
who is the seat of the six godly qualities, whose
divine face beams with a soft, graceful smile,
FB/AmmaChimes
..who incessantly showers the nectar of
affection, who sings the glories of God most
sweetly,
FB/AmmaChimes
..who shines with the complexion of rainclouds,
whose words are soaked in honey, who is
immortal bliss embodied, and who is the
Supreme Goddess Herself.
