    I keep Amma’s picture close to me so that I can see Her face soon after waking up….for me this is the best way to have begin the day positively.

  2. Prabha

    First I look at clock (does that count?) Prepare myself to sit and say mantra on my mala and see Amma’s face. After that I allow myself to think & dive into the day.

    It’s different each day. But I am happiest if my mantra or a thought of Amma comes to me first. I battle with a vague sense of dread some mornings but when that happens I think of Amma and all is well
