My Teacher
My teacher took my fumbling hand; And guided me through the vein of darkness At the end of alley there was a spec of light! Real brightness, I thought. My beloved master suddenly stopped me. There was a sudden lightening all around. And in my mind too! Is it real? no. She guided me to look at the stars Sun and moon. are’nt they brighter? No. You are the brightest of them all. Then she smiled. It was the smile of God. The smile of universe. Also the smile of a child. so innocent and fresh. BY SATHEESAN RANGORATH

Divine Owls?
Amritapuri, 15th February 2011 Few days ago a baby owl was brought to Amma during darshan. It had fallen from its nest people said… Amma blessed the bird and made everyone happy, then instructed that it be returned to the nest. Later I was shown the nesting place, which is between the first and second floor of the back of the E building (facing the Juice Stall). I enjoyed peeping at these beautiful birds from distance. At night time you could hear them screech for what seemed to be a full-night rather annoying noise. I also learned that there were…

Won’t you come to me? leave me never alone. In this overwhelming effulgence of your divine-light, I beg for your merciful glance. looking at you and drinking your love is yet my another wish, unable to stop these unremitting wishes at the door my heart. I stand here to seek…

Healing Rays
They moisten my mind, the healing ray they broke the wall, which hinder my way and led me to ultimate dawn… Those flying birds of the vast sky, incurvated the flow of devotion in me… Upside down waves cleansed muddy, dusty images, immense pain. When those peerless foots appeared in my mind… Sitting on a swan, you came and resided in my heart. You took my hands to the eternal truth… by Anagha Sharan

A Privileged Life
Our accommodation at Tuticorin was in one of Amma’s new schools, still under construction. It was quite clean and comfortable. The local hardworking and sweet devotees provided a constant supply of chai and delicious, non-spicy meals for the Western palate. However, neither the electrical nor the water supply could cope with the demands of our tour group. So, for most of our stay we had to use skillful means to come up with enough water for our basic needs. At our evening stop on the way to Ramanthapuram, in a sandy field under the full moon, Amma asked for jokes…

Warmth of love in winter
As the winters started to set in Delhi and the cold waves started to blow, the first thoughts which came to the mind of the devotees of the Delhi Ashram, was not to take out the warm clothes and cover themselves adequately, but that how those people, who live without even a shelter, leave alone some warm clothes would bear this cruel, bone chilling and unbearable cold season. This thought paved the way for the Blanket distribution program of the Delhi Ashram. The program first of all required new blankets to be purchased for which funds were required. This was…

AYUDH Kenya hosts waffle bake sale
AYUDH Kenya, inspired by the Belgium youth, had the idea to start a waffle bake-sale on 24th December at the Westgate Mall, Nairobi. The main aim was to raise money for the Amma’s charitable projects. We were very lucky to have pulled the whole event off in two weeks. Arranging for a space at the mall during Christmas time. Although, this was a cost-effective project, renting out a space at the mall, buying all the ingredients and cutlery, fortunately, we managed to raise some money to get things started before-hand, luckily. We began the sale at 8:00am which ran a…
