no language for love
Today we got a chance to see Amma's Devi Bhava satsang and talk with Amma before She came out in Devi Bhava. For this time, there was no video, only audio. Once we heard Amma's voice, everybody yelled 'Amma!' Then there not much sound from Amma for a while. Some brahmacharinis said, 'Amma, why don't you say anything?!' After this repeated, Amma enquired about everybody's health, and asked if anyone was ill.
Again, a long silence. Then one devotee who was linked from Germany told Amma that there are many devotees from European countries wanting to talk to Amma. Then he listed 15 or so countries where the devotees were from. There was no sound from Amma, so he again began to list all the countries.
When he said that the foreign devotees wanted to speak to Amma, Amma said, 'I don't know their language.' Then a silence for a while, and Amma said a few profound words; 'There is no language for love' - 'premattinu bhasha yilla.' Then she said, 'that should be enjoyed by the heart' - 'atu hridayatillude nukarunatanu.'
Then Amma said that She was happy to see the faces of Her children, and that isn't something expressed by words. Thus, in an unexpected way, Amma gave these deep words to us.
