Guest guest Posted April 25, 2004 Report Share Posted April 25, 2004 Remember "Donna" by Richie Valens? I changed it to "Amma" a long time ago: Oh Amma Oh Amma I met a guru, and Amma is her name Since I met her, I've never been the same And I love my guru Oh Amma, where can't you be? Where can't you be?

Guest guest Posted April 26, 2004 Report Share Posted April 26, 2004 Namah Shivaya. How delightful to discover that there are other siblings out there rewriting songs for Amma! (to the tune of "Jesus Loves Me") Amma love me, this I know. For Her hugs have told me so. Little ones to Her belong. We are weak and She is strong. Yes, Amma loves me! Yes, Amma loves me! Yes, Amma loves me! Her hugs have told me so! And you should see what our satsang did with Van Morrison¹s ³These Are the Days²!
