It was a quiet and slightly rainy day today. Even now a slight breeze with a little smell of rain is there. I love this tropical climate even though I was born in the totally opposite arctic world. When I was a child I used to imagine tropical places in my mind in the cold dark nights of the northern hemisphere. I guess it was some kind of foreboding of things to come. In my mind everything here is connected with Amma. I imagine how Amma would have passed all the different seasons here in Her early life and find satisfaction in that. I used to go walking on the beach and swimming in the ocean thinking that this is where the God took birth in this age. Still I wonder at the beauty of it all. There is no place like this.<\/p>\n
In the afternoon Amma recorded some bhajans for the upcoming tour. Mainly Telugu and Kannada songs. I\u2019m sure the devotees will find a lot of joy in them. Amma just never stops giving happiness and joy in every direction. <\/p>\n
Tonight on the list were quite a few classics and a couple of newer ones: <\/p>\n
Narayana Hari
Tapta Manasam
Amme Bhagavati
Radha Ramana
Om Hari Om Hari
Om Namah Shivaya
Mor Mukut Vale
Jai Jai Kali Ma
Vishwanath<\/p>\n
