Expect before your expectation.
Expect Amma before your expectation
— Bharata Yatra — 20 dec 2007, Kozhikode
Amma says that her life is like that of a river. flowing all the time — flowing towards all parts of the world. flowing into the humble, into the poor, into the suffering — to awaken, to fulfill, to purify. Amma says that she didn’t become a railway track. she became a river.
Just few days ago she was in London, one week ago she was in California, before she was in Paris… yesterday she was in Manjeri, now she is in Kozhikode. and tomorrow…
I have seen people coming to the ashram from various parts of the world, take 3-4 days to overcome the jet-lag and look and feel fresh again. It takes time to adjust to the climate and surroundings, language, and food. It’s also very difficult to re-set the body clock. Now look at Amma. She holds programs everywhere in the world. She goes from stage to stage –literally! The people traveling with Amma find it hard to keep pace with her. They all take a break or rest while Amma is in full action.
Amma arrived straight from Manjeri to Kozhikode. The devotees were not prepared. They were expecting Amma in the evening. Only around a hundred people were there. As Amma moved though the devotees you could see that many were in tears of joy. By the time the students of Amrita Vidyalayam came prepared to play drums welcoming Amma , she was already in the room.
So next time, expect her a little ahead of your expectation.

Oh My Blessed Brother you have shown us the truth. For is this not a most amazing example of the Perfect Nature of Our True Guru Amma? Amma does not need to perform miracles to show her Truth, just watch her day after day. She is beyond compare and beyond our human bodies and minds. Blessed Amma is Perfection Unbounded.
No expectation expected! Amma always keeps us guessing and wondering.
What an Absolute Wonder is before us! This is Our True Guru, Blessed Amma.
Amma is truly great to do all this for her children . Yes, next time we will expect amma before our expectation……om namah shivaya
Brother Swami Dhyanamrita, So much do I enjoy what you write in these blogs. Your vision is true. Such a pleasant way to say that most of us do not know our Guru. And all we have to do is look at her subtle nature before us day after day and it reveals the most Amazing Soul/Atman anyone of us has ever dared to stand before.
Brother Swami you show me such a sweetness in your words and way of being how Blessed Amma has affected you through the years to become a sweeter and sweeter Brother for all of us.
