Just returned home after my 1st retreat w/ Amma in San Ramon. It is very challenging to come back into the world and I miss Amma and the community of peace and love that surrounds Amma. Grateful without measure and no real way to articulate all the love and grace yet. Thank you. Om Namah […]
The other night we were again watching Amma via web-cam, this time in Her ashram in San Ramon. Okay, I’ll go straight to the point – that is the babies. What babies? At the end of the Devi-bhava Amma often does baby feeding, that is blesses them by giving them some food with Her own […]
The roof of the flats offers much solace after a long days work of seva. As the sun begins to set, I often head up there and lie on my back just looking up at the clouds and out into the infinite. The other evening while resting in Savasana, I looked up to find about […]
After being on the European Tour and seeing quite a few Devi Bhavas live and also witnessing the web-casts back to Amritapuri, now that I am back in the Ashram, I have been eagerly looking forward to watching everything from this end. So around breakfast time this morning (Saturday in India) I joined the Brahmacharis […]
Amma again blessed the residents of Amritapuri with another web-cast – this time from the San Ramon Ashram where the third evening of programmes were beginning. After satsang, bhajans, and arati, Amma began giving darshan. The computer with the web-cast was brought near Amma who occasionally glanced over at us to everyone’s delight. After sometime […]
Once Amma left the hall in Dublin after Devi Bhava, most of the tour staff headed by bus to a location in Dublin where we would spend our last night in Europe before dispersing to either the US, home, or Amritapuri. We didn’t know much about the place where we were going, only that it […]
We all got ready to visit the San Ramon ashram early Sunday morning. When we reached there we were surprised to see a long line for Darshan tokens. Amazing that on the first day of public Darshan so many people both old-timers and many new faces had come. When Amma enetered the Hall at 10:00am […]
Today Amma’s European tour ended in Dublin, Ireland. The Internet connection was poor, but hopefully the connection of the heart all the more strong. Amma was wearing a green sari. I like the green sari, because the first time I saw Amma in Devi-bhava, She was wearing a green sari. The picture kept breaking into […]
I’ve been teaching a course in semiconductor physics here at the Engineering College of Amrita University, a ten minute walk across the new backwaters bridge from the ashram. The electrons in semiconductors and metals chaotically move around with average speeds of a hundred thousand kilometers per second, first one way, then the other, and then […]
