Amma and I .... my Story

[Guest guest]

I have been on a Spiritual journey for many years since I was 20.

And many times the roads were rough in my quest for understanding on

the whys in the workings of the Universe and such. I would visit

mediums and tarot card readers and so called Gurus and everything

under the Sun dealing with Spiritual matters. .. I met my ex wife at

work and she introduced me to one known as Sathya Sai Baba that many

believe is an incarnation of God. For 17 years I was a follower of

Sai Baba and in fact went twice to India to see him. Though vibhuti

flows from his hand and have known many who were helped by him I

always felt something missing. I could never pinpoint the reason. No

matter how hard I tried to follow his teachings it just never seem to

click though at one time he did save me from hitting a guardrail

during a snowy winter and took me out of my body and showed me the

glorious workings of the Universe. Still I felt an emptiness within

me though I went along with it with my ex. Having had 5 children and

my ex being at home it became financally dificult so I ended up with

2 jobs. Full time at that. Eventually not seeing each other often and

at times being angry, not only at myself, my ex had a vision from

Ganesha that the way to resolve this was for us to seperate. Which is

what happened. We eventually divorced. So my ex ended up with the

children and I in an apartment some 20 miles away. AS time went on I

saw that this was best also. I got into AOL and there met many

wonderful people. One person had in their profile someone they called

Ammachi. Initially I didn't think much of it for so many people put

things in their profile for this and that. As the years rolled by my

curiosity started to get the best of me so I looked up Amma on the

internet. What I read made my heart jump. It was like something I

never felt. So 2 years ago I first saw Amma in Rhode Island. I can't

say that it was an earth shattering experience but felt a love there

that cannot be descibed. And the words she spoke to me over and over

again .......Namo..Namo..Namo..Namo .. left an impression that lasted

till I went to the Retreat lasy year in Rhode Island. It was was

finally there that the realization came that she IS the Divine Mother

of the Universe. Oh we still have our problems in life and such for

we are born on this plane to extinquise the karmic patterns of past

lifetimes. But I have found it going quicker knowing about Amma and

sometimes I can't think of Amma there for the vibrations itself is

sometimes to much. Oh I still have my problems today but knowing Amma

has given me a blessings that I never knew before knowing her though

Amma was around all the time.

Island retreat on the 22nd of this month when I thought otherwise

so ....Om Amma Namah.

Welcome wayofeagle/Alexander,

 

Verse 1 of the great Shakta hymn SaundaryaLahari, states that Shiva

is a shava (dead body) without Shakti - it is truly the divine mother

alone who brings total fulfillment in all realms , material and

spiritual. We are all very fortunate, that Amma comes all the way to

see us here. Amma's recommendation for solving all problems is

chanting the Lalitha Sahasranamam, which is very beneficial if

chanted in the early hours before sunrise. Rest assured that

everything will improve by Amma's grace; I have been going to Amma

retreats only in the last one year, but I have noticed how many

people arrive in a very depressed and hopeless state, and six months

later at the next retreat, they are very joyful and beaming with

happiness. I hope you have a good time at Rhode Island!!

 

Aum Namasivaya
