“…we are extremely blessed and fortunate people that, in this short time, you started from a scratch in the mud and you have become the lotuses. The lotus will invite many insects and will convert them into lotuses. Madhukar they call it, madhukar, the ones who are selecting the madhu, the nectar… the honey. When they get the nectar, they become themselves the lotuses. The whole dirty, filthy pond is covered with those lotus flowers. And one lotus, who is the Guru, grows higher, and then is given to the Goddess on which She resides.” © Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi, photo @tanmae_buenavida
