....BTW, at the same time, I called customer service supervisor at Hershey,

and asked if they would donate kisses for Amma's tour in the midwest,

etc...and the response I got was "I don't think the bosses would have

any interest in providing kisses to a female guru from India", with a

most cocky attitude........

 

Oh for the passion of an innocent devotee........I was there and still

have to put a lid on my utopian dreams ......of having Mother in every

home in the world......followed visits to corporate board rooms and

governmental offices visits. She is plucking them one by one........

 

And I feel so happy to have been in her lap !!!

 

thanks for listening to my foolish dreams

 

 

 

Dear Amritavarshini ~ from where I sit, which, granted is nowhere near were

you really are, you do have the passion of an innocent devotee. Recently, in

an email, I was recounting to Arunji a play we had put on for Amma during one

of Her Washington, DC visits.

 

I won't go into it here, except to say that it was about Her early life, and

the most darling child of a devotee played Krishna. He was dark-skinned, so

not a far stretch to "see" blue, and he had a crop of the most adorable black

curls. In the play, he wore a peacock feather in his head. Another child

played Amma's vision of Devi, and I will never forget the unselfconscious way

she

drifted across the stage, reaching up as if to caress a leaf here and there.

The innocent beauty of these children was spellbinding, and I guess this may

be somewhat close to what Amma means when She says we should be like little

children.

 

Part of the innocence of children is having dreams ~ simple dreams, "easy"

dreams, "hard" dreams, outrageous dreams. Your dreams are never foolish

Amritavarshini ... who knows what you envisioned may one day happen, and

imagining

you call Hershey to ask for them to donate kisses is such a wonderful

picture. Too bad for his cocky attitude, but how wonderful for your innocent

dream.
