It was a nice evening at Berlin and many devotees had queued in for the second program of the day. There were claps after every Bhajan and a pin drop silence during the guided meditation. Amma’s Darshan had started and lines were not very small. The hall was the Velodrome, a big arena with a […]
Amma’s Munich children welcomed Her for a three day program on October 12, which marked Amma’s 26th visit to the city.
