TOURING WITH AMMA 2010

I AM BLESSED TO BE EMBARKING ON MATA AMRITANANDA MAYI ‘S 24th WORLD TOUR.I AM IN LOS ANGELES.I ARRIVED TO DO SEVA(VOLUNTEERING )AT 8AM.I WAS VERY EXCITED TO SEE AMMA AND FEEL HER HEALING PRESENCES.SHE ARRIVED IN THE HALL AT 11AM.I SAT AND WATCHED AS DEVOTEES WASHED HER FEET.THE VIBRATION AROUND HER IS ELEVATED.AFTER A SHORT MEDITATION ….SHE STARTED THE DARSHAN WHERE SHE HUGS EACH PERSON PRESENT.IT IS A GLORIOUS GIFT TO BE IN HER ARMS.
I RECEIVED A TOKEN (A TICKET ) Q 3 FOR A DARSHAN MYSELF..I KNEW THAT IT WOULD BE MANY HOURS. SO I VOLUNTEERED MOST OF THE DAY WITH HALF HOUR BREAKS TO GO SIT NEAR HER AND MEDITATE.
I RECEIVED DARSHAN @5PM.I TOOK WITH ME THE MALA BRACELETS THAT WERE MADE BY AMMA’S CHILDREN of COSTA RICA.AS I WAS NEXT TO RECEIVE HER EMBRACE WITH MY BAG OF BRACELET ,THEY FELL INTO HER LAP AND ON HER FEET.I PICKED UP A FEW ON THE LAP AND WENT TO HER FEET TO PICK UP THE REST.AS I PICKED UP A BRACELET I WOULD TOUCH HER FEET….ALL CONSCIOUSNESSOF THE ROOM WITH A 1000 + PEOPLE WAS GONE.I WAS HAPPY,CALM,CONTENT JUST TO BE NEAR HER AND FEEL HER EXPANSIVE ENERGY.LOVE…….LOVE..LOVE……….MY HEART WAS OPEN.

LATER ,@8PM AFTER MORE MEDITATION ……..I WAS GIVEN THE HONOR TO GIVE PRASAD(A FLOWER AND SWEETY).I WAS TO HAND AMMA THOSE TO GIVE TO THE PEOPLES.AS IT WAS NEAR THE CLOSE OF THE FIRST PROGRAM,IT HAPPEN I WAS SITTING INCHES FROM AMMA AT THE END.THE PROGRAM ENDED WITH ARATI(FIRE CEREMONY),LOKAH(PEACE PRAYER) AND AMMA SINGING A POWERFUL DEVI SONG.RIGHT THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!I WAS ABLE TO SIT NEXT TO HER FOR 15 MINUTES ,OR WAS IT 30 MINUTES OR WAS IT 5 MINUTES.TIME STOOD STILL.I CRIED WITH JOY TO BE PRESENT TO RECEIVE THIS WONDERFUL GIFT.
JAI AMMA..JAI AMMA….JAI DEVI……JAI AMMA
