About this Blog

This Blog is a collection of excerpts from talks given by Sri Swami Vishwananda. Please note that this Blog does not focus on dates, background and the exact original way of how Swamiji delivered the speech. We edit the talks slightly, presenting them in a kind of “poetic” format. This means we choose certain paragraphs from a talk which reflect a particular theme.
Read them as pieces of Divine Wisdom, meditate upon the words and just feel how Swamiji is addressing you with His words.

We all want to go back to 'Mama'

Sri Swami Vishwananda about the yearning of the Motherly Love.

Sri Swami Vishwananda:
When a child looks at the Mother, it doesn’t matter how the Mother is in the outside, but the inside knows it, the inside recognizes.
An example with Lilli [the little daughter of a Devotee] itself. (smiling)
I oftenterrorize her. (laughing)
But it’s nice to see, it’s nice to feel, how the longing for the Mother is there.
The first thing when I hold her, she said “I want to go to Mama”. (laughter) (laughing)
But that’s what we all want actually. (laughing)
She knows it now.
For sure when she grows up she will forget about it, but deep inside, it will always be there.

Deep inside each one of us, we long for that. (smiling)
But very often we are so proud of ourselves.
We are so proud; there is so much pride in ourselves that we say ‘No’ to it.
But there, Her hand is always open and She is ever ready.
Like for Navaratri I was saying “When you go to the Mother, She will hold you.
She will handle you.
You don’t need to do much, She will do it.”
But the first step is for you to long for Her, it’s up to you to go in Her lap.
If you don’tmake the step, She will not force you.
She will be patiently waiting for you.

Watch here a nice tribute to Mother Mary: ( with the Song "Let it be" by Paul McCartney

When I find myself in times of trouble, mother Mary comes to me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be.
And in my hour of darkness she is standing right in front of me,
speaking words of wisdom, let it be
