Papillion in Pondi

If you could take on another life form and come and visit Amma, what would it be?

This evening, in Pondicherry, a beautiful black butterfly with what looked like yellow and red markings was fluttering around the stage during darshan.  Not just once, but a number of times it came.  Over the course of a few hours.  Where did it go in between visits?  Perhaps to tell a few friends to come.  Or to go off and sit on a flower of one of the many decorations that covered the stage and bask in the nectar of bliss it had collected while flying around.  It is so nice sitting on stage when all of a sudden this beautiful butterfly comes dances around for a while.

We’re just like the butterflies.  She sees only our beautiful colors – our hearts, our smiles, our bhakti.   We come to Amma in our human forms. We come out of darshan wanting to flutter around like the butterfly – or to sit and meditate on the lotus flower of our hearts.

  1. Grandeur of butterfly and its beautiful colours are within…
    waawah! So nice to hear and keep the smile shining ….

  2. Whatever form I am given in my next birth, I am dead sure I would be crazy for AMMA in that form also and I am sure AMMA fill find me again as she has found me today, Satgurus find their disciplies and not disciple find their GOD

  3. after posting this on the wall in Chennai along with the other recent tour blogs, I was approached by two other people who said they saw the butterfly fly directly above Amma’s head, and then later land on Her shoulder…..
