arms outstretched in bliss

Tues 23 Jun

Tonight was the first night of the Albuquerque retreat.

Amma sang a new English bhajan – “In This World of Change”.  Amritapriya played harmonium and sang lead with Amma.  It was very sweet.

Amma sang:

• Sri Gananayaka
• Sundar Hai Nayana Tere
• Kanivotu Kattarulitaname
• In This World of Change
• Iswar Parameshvara
• Markanda Madhurya
• Shristiyum Niye (in Spanish)
• Amma Amma Taye

At the end of Shristiyum Niye, instead of ‘Devi….. Devi…… Devi’, Amma sang ‘Devi….. Devi….. Madre Divina’ and the crowd repeated back. This happened twice.  The last round, Amma just sang Madre Divina, Her arms outstretched in bliss.
