“There is only one Atman. It is all-pervasive. When we become broad-minded, we can merge with it.”
“The same consciousness that flows in and through every human being lends its power to the movement of the wind, to the flow of the river and to the light of the sun.”
“Just as the tree is contained in the seed and the butter pervades the milk, God dwells in everything.”

“Just as Nature is dedicated to helping us, we too should be dedicated to helping Nature. Only then can the harmony between Nature and humanity be preserved.”
“We must remember that everything is sentient, that everything is full of consciousness and life. Everything exists in God. There is no such thing as matter: consciousness alone exists. If we approach all situations with this attitude then destruction becomes impossible for us.”
“Even today while travelling on the road, when Amma sees lush green fields her heart goes into rapture at the very sight of it as if it happens in bhakti. On a full moon night, as the ocean water surges up towards the moon, in the same manner Amma’s mind spontaneously surges out towards Nature.”
“Nature is God in a form that we can directly perceive even through our limited senses.”
“If you could really love Nature, then that would be your best girlfriend. You do not even need to marry! Like the poet who is waiting for the next line of his poem, you would not bother about anything else. Enjoying Nature, talking to it – Nature is our real family.”
Amma rhetorically asked if agriculture was not our life? How can we survive without it?
“Only through love and compassion is the protection and preservation of Nature possible.” —Amma
Kavinte Raksha Nadinte Raksha—”protection of the sacred groves is protection of the country.”

“If humankind disappears from the face of the earth, nature will continue to thrive more beautifully. But if the nature’s greenness is lost, noone will be able to live thereafter.”
