Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Hi, Sweta! I live in NYC, but was blessed with some airline credit that has to be used by July or it will be lost..and I thought to myself...what better place to go than to spend my birthday than with Amma! Unfortunately, I'm sick right now and I hope I get better by Thursday, because I'd be so sad to miss it. Anyway, I plan to be at the program on Friday night and Devi Bhava on Saturday. If you want to email me your picture, I'll keep an eye out for you while I'm there and hopefully we could say hello!

Before my darshan, a woman next to me was sobbing because she didn't realize that she couldn't have darshan 2 days in a row. She went to the rest room, & I decided if she couldn't pull herself together, I would give up my birthday darshan token to her. When she returned from the restroom, an attendent told her, "I understand you're going for darshan." On one hand, I think my birthday darshan was so good, because I was willng to give it up. But, I regret not giving it up immediately, & feel sure that if I had, Amma would've blessed me even more, in some other way at another time. Where do you live? I will be in San Ramon, & plan to train for special needs seva. > > Sweta > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 6, 2005 Report Share Posted June 6, 2005 Hi Iswari, It's probably not a coincidence that I'm also sick, even though I'm usually quite healthy. I've heard that lots of people become ill before Amma's visit. Maybe it's to burn off karma, in preparation for the next step? I sincerely hope you fly to the MA Center, even if you're not feeling up to par. I totally agree that seeing Amma is the best use of the free airline miles.
