5 May, ErnakulamAt the end of darshan on the last day, about 50 staff members of Amrita School of Arts and Sciences, Amrita University, performed pada puja to Amma. Each person participated in a part of the puja; a few people for pouring the water on Amma’s feet, another few for applying the sandal paste, and others for applying the ornaments on Amma’s hands on feet. Amma told everyone to clear the stage, saying that these devotees have been waiting years to do this, and all of them should have the chance to see. Seeing so many offering their gratitude to Amma together, one is reminded of Amma’s saying, ‘orammayude makkal,’ – ‘we are all children of one Mother.’Once the puja was finished, Amma started to sing ‘Mata Rani’ – ‘Oh Mother! You have come and fulfilled all my wishes.’ Thus, Amma concluded the 2-day brahmasthanam festival in Ernakulam and exited the stage, resting before the next day’s program in Pallakad.
