Quotes

January 28, 2024 · Silent Retreat at Arunachala

“See, he didn't tell her to stay in the ashram. He said, you have to raise this child. You go back, but inner renunciation.”

“He says, why, ma, you're already in that state. Why do you need orange robes to show that you're sannyas? Why do you need a name?”

“But the inner renunciation had already happened. And nobody could change that. Nobody could touch it because it was an inner silence, inner divinity that just happened.”

“Ma's Swamiji says she is already in the state — no need for orange robes”
