“Look, in order to pluck a rose one has to put one’s hand into the midst of thorns. But if the rose is a person’s aim and he has a keen desire to pluck it, he will not refrain from doing so for fear of being pricked. Moreover, the Great Mother arranges whatever is necessary for each one. She certainly knows the real need of every individual. If one has at least this much faith, there is no reason at all to feel distressed.” -Sri Anandamayi Ma
