Matching Set

 

12 August 2004, Amritapuri

 

Today Amma's children at Amritapuri were treated to an unusual sight: Amma

giving darshan wearing a white oxford shirt over Her sari. One can often

see Amma's brahmacharis wearing these collared, button-down shirts, but

Amma Herself?

 

Today a poor, elderly man named Kumarakhandaswamy from Tamil Nadu came for

Amma's darshan. He gave a small package to Amma. Amma opened the package.

Inside was a new white shirt and dhoti. Amma immediately put the shirt on

over Her sari and continued giving darshan. What was the story behind this

anomaly? Ten months ago, the man's friend gave two new shirts and two new

dhotis during a festival. As it was his custom whenever he received

something to to offer it to Amma before accepting it, he took one of the

sets of new clothes, wrapped it nicely and kept it in his puja room in

front of Amma's photo. There it stayed until he had a chance to come to

Amritapuri today. Amma said that seeing his innocence, She spontaneously

decided to wear the shirt.

 

In the photo you can see the collar of Amma's new shirt. Behind Her is

seated Kumarakhandaswamy, wearing his matching set.
