Through This Book, The Ninth Volume Of Awaken, Children!, Mother's Call To Her Children Continues. And It Will Continue Until We Respond From Deep Within. The Response Must Come Because Mother's Words Are Not Mere Words, But The Expression Of Supreme Love, The Call Of The Absolute Truth. That Call Will Therefore Sooner Or Later Touch And Awaken The Innocent, Slumbering Child Within Us. Mother, The Supreme Master, Will Then Slowly Lead Us To Moksha, The Ultimate Goal Of Life, A State Of Liberation From All Bondage; From All Pain And Suffering, A State Of Infinite Joy, Bliss, And Fulfillment. The Year 1987 Marked A Turning Point In Mother's Mission Of Spreading Her Message Of Love, Compassion, And Peace To Mankind. The Time Had Come For Mother To Go Out And Gather All Her Children, Who Were Waiting For Her All Over The World, Into Her Fold. Though Mother's 1987 American And European World Tour Lasted For Three Months, I Have Omitted Mentioning Many Of The Details Of The Tour In This Book. I Have Instead Chosen To Focus Mainly On Mother's Dialogues And A Few Events That I Thought Would Be Of Most Interest To The Reader. Translated By Swami Amritaswarupananda. Published By The Disciples Of Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, Affectionately Known As Mother, Or Amma The Hugging Saint.
