Question: Can householders attain liberation?
Amma: Yes,while remaining in the house,
they should live for God. It is possible to carry on a spiritual life while
living in the world. The only thing is that one must perform actions selflessly
without any attachment. One should not worry about the past or the future. Live
in the present, surrendering your actions and their fruit at the feet of the
Lord. Perform your duties as sincerely as possible, keeping in mind that all is
entrusted by God. Be satisfied with whatever is provided by the Supreme.
Anyhow, when we act with an attitude of surrender and devotion, it will bear
the best fruit. But do not confuse your mind thinking of the fruit. If you
perform your duties in the present, sincerely and wholeheartedly, considering
it as your duty entrusted by God, then the future will become your friend. Live
today with dedication then tomorrow will be your friend. Get rid of ‘I’ and
‘mine’ and consider everything as God’s.
