Filming Amma is certainly a unique way to experience Her divine presence. One has to be on their toes and alert at all times. It can get so crazy around Amma sometimes, that the mind has many opportunities to act up. Amma always finds a way to bring you back to the present moment though. […]
Om Amriteshvaryai Namah Weekends are incredibly busy here. Saturday and Sunday Amma is giving darshan on the big stage all day. It is very like Devi Bhava except that it goes on all day. This morning Amma came at 10am and it is now 10.16pm and she is about to finish. The ashram has been […]
As I left my seva at Amrita University I heard thunder, then the sound of swiftly approaching wind in the branches of the coconut palms.

Another novelty was the Italian version of the Song Lokah […]

Amma is the pure, blessed One. Look at any photo from the old days when she was ‘just a teenage girl Ha!’ and a photo from this year and look at the eyes in both photos. See what I mean! Nothing has changed, nothing. Amma is pure beyond words. Amma is ever-changeless. She is the […]
This year the ashram seems home more than before as I arrive after a summer away from the ashram. The loving greetings exchanged between the residents and visitors from all over the world have warmed all hearts. People seem very sweet and relaxed, perhaps because the hard physical work that followed the tsunami was replaced […]
