Yesterday during sunset, while laying in savasana after doing IAM on the rooftop of the ‘S’ flats, I caught a glimpse of another flock of Kites (eagles) slowly circling above on an air current near the south entrance to the Ashram. Sitting up, I noticed another even larger flock circling further to the north – perhaps near Amma’s house, or towards the northern entrance of the Ashram. As I watched, the northern batch started to drift southwards and joined with the others. The combined group of about 50 danced and circled directly above me for about 30 seconds, then slowly dispersed.<\/p>\n
I finished my meditation, went downstairs, and only then did I find out that Amma had just left for Sri Lanka. ‘When did She leave?” I asked. “About 10 minutes ago,” came the answer. Her car had left through the north gate, then headed south along Beach Road. <\/p>\n
