Everybody (except me at the moment) is clapping, between 50 and 100 people are dancing/bouncing in a group, cheering as the last verse progresses. I write this paragraph as Big Swami sings ‘Mata Rani’, the top of the hit parade this summer. I hope that you have gained from this small effort to bring you some of the impressions and energy of the tour. You all, my dear brothers and sisters, have been here with me during this glorious tour and its finale in Rio. The weddings start a little after 8:30, to very happy bhajans in the background, a joyful atmosphere. The mantra-ized people are flowing into the area just created for them near our table, borrowing pens and scraps of paper One beautiful blue-green clad couple nuzzles. Some were dancing to one of the lively bhajans. Just before 8: The wedding participants (flock, or is it bevy, or whatever they are called) brighten up this corner of the room with their glowing faces and colorful silk saris and punjabis. The moment of the quiet miracle of Her darshan. I am just an idiot with a grin going up for darshan, enjoying the moment. The separation anxiety/angst/sadness runs high among those going back to California. The India residents say that they don’t get darshan in India because they get it on tour, and on tour they don’t get it because they get it in India. The staff intermingled with the end of the darshan line – those staff members not going back to their homes in India. The person is then escorted for explanation. Knowledgeable people (Shantamitra and Ramakrishna Swami), with the slips of paper with the mantras, are on both sides of Her, listening, and handing the slip. The mantra giving is a double line, as She gives one on one side, the next in the other line is positioned, etc.
#Amma amritanandamayi plus
It seemed that the energy level picked up even further during the last 50 or so Names.ħ:00 Mahishasura ends, darshan looks like it is about to end, but still over 200 in the mantra line plus probably call the staff for darshan, plus the 11 weddings. Another includes pineapple.Ħ:45 the Names end, Mahishasura Mardini starts. One couple has a fresh cashew fruit and nut in the bowl of fruit offering, along with mango, banana, apples and grapes. The wedding couples are now in their pretty outfits, starting to assemble by the side of the stage, perhaps a little prematurely. Mother has not seemed to rush the darshans. The energy in the hall has maintained a high intensity the whole night. (They were out of the little quiches) A huge improvement in quality and availability (it is after 4 a.m., and getting fresh fruit and salad is a boon)Ħ 15 the shoppers at the bookstore have finally slowed down to a trickle. The items that caught my eye in the snack area were a fresh cut up fruit salad a plate with humous, salad, bread and cheese the large egg-shaped roll baked with cheese inside individual pizzas yoghurt. I recognize the simple Gopi Gopala and Jai Ambe bhajans that we sing, plus there are a lot in local language that use Amma’s name. A mixture of guitar, harmonium, latino percussion things, with excellent singers. Some local groups have been playing – very nice, getting the audience into the songs, clapping and swaying. There are a few people sacked out on the floor.Ĥ:00 a.m. The bookstore crowds are starting to thin out – no longer several deep. the mantra line – it has grown, considerably. Mother is giving out mantras at a good pace, but I am guessing it will be an hour or so at the end of darshan to give mantras to all of those that will be in line if the backlog maintains.ġ:30 a.m. The huge mantra lines in Chile may be surpassed.
#Amma amritanandamayi full
One mantra instruction group is seated in front of me, there is a line into another room full of mantra instruction groups.
I just checked the mantra line, and counted well over 100 people waiting for mantra.
Some are bare chested, they all have painted faces and colorful feather decorations - headdress and/or arm bands and/or long earrings down to the abdomen. She tasted one that is good for women’s pain, abdominal pain in the vital body and energetic body.
The lines of people at the bookstore tables are several people deepġ2:15 The photographer was just talking to me about some native medicine men that came and presented some herbs for Amma in darshan this afternoon.
“it’s overwhelming” is what some people in the bookstore had said yesterday, and I might suggest that 11 weddings is in the same category.
