Amma & elephants

6 Sep 2008, Amritapuri

Amma has been feeding both elephants in front of her house last Mon, Tue and Friday after Bhajans. Such a sight.. how they stand in front of the hut, and all the trees there. I watched from above, front of my room, how Amma interacted with them.
So beautiful.
They both behave so well now. When Amma comes they bow and trumpet Om namah Shivaya in unison, and also when she leaves. A touching scene of how Amma is the manifestation of the shakti of nature herself. She is in full swing feeding them, caressing them and teaching them lessons in patience and in sraddha, not to waste one crumb of the food she offers them.
