Light that removes darkness
Sunday, June 22nd, 2008 There was a lot a crowd for the morning darshan. The program was held at the Marriott Pyramid North hotel in an indoor hall. At about 3:30 PM, the power went off in the program hall and it became pitch dark (yes, power cut happens in US too!). Someone brought a cell phone near Amma to illuminate Amma using its light. This was followed by someone else brining a laptop. Video cameras followed with their flash lights to illuminate Amma’s area. There was a silence in the hall and suddenly people started chanting ‘Om Amriteshwaryai Namaha’.…

Krishna Cobalt Blue On Screen
At least that’s what it looked like on the TV screen in the ‘LA Comm Center’ where I was watching the puja. My favorite color – perhaps because it hints of Krishna.Amma came out at about 8:50 Pacific time tonight. Unfortunately, just as the curtain opened, the screen went blank – literally at that moment. Not sure if it affected the other TVs – there are probably more than a dozen scattered all over the hotel – in the overflow conference rooms, in the dining hall, on the deck outside. LA is one of the biggest Devi Bhavas (outside of…

10th day San Ramon
Amma’s tenth day program in San Ramon, California Saturday, June 14th, 2008 Amma has always blessed San Ramon with two Devi Bhava programs during summer time. The second Devi Bhava was more crowded than the first one. Devi Bhava started at 7 PM with Amma’s satsang followed by an Atma Puja. Amma started giving darshan at around 9 PM. Amma was wearing a beautiful saree. It is hard to describe the saree – it had a light sandal colour as the base with patterns made of different colours and embellished with stone works. The saree looked different on the closed…

Role model to others
Thursday, June 12th, 2008 As Amma walked into the program hall today, as usual, She stretched Her arms to touch the hands of the people who were on Her pathway. Seeing this, a small child started walking in front of Amma with stretched arms, touching the hands of people! It was very exciting to watch this. Before starting the bhajans, Amma mentioned about this and said, “Knowingly or unknowingly, we inspire others. So, all of us should become role models to others”. Here is a list of bhajans from today’s program: Sankar Sut Ho Tum (Hindi) Manas Chora Radha Krishna…

Little space inside
San Ramon, California Wednesday, June 11th, 2008 Before starting the bhajans, Amma gave a short satsang. “Children, you listen to satsang everyday – you should practice them.

Create a little space for others in our heart – inside and outside”.
