“Whenever you feel grief, hurt, or despair, know that I am with you. Don’t be afraid or disappointed. What is there to fear when I am with you? Even destiny cannot harm my children. You can trust me with your burdens. Remember, there is someone behind you who will always protect you. Your Mother is here.” - Sri Sri Holy Mother Sarada Devi
