Just wondering Dear Malati ~ I live in Silver City, New Mexico, and I'm about 6 hours away from the nearest satsang, which would be Albuquerque. Because of my illness, I am unable to drive even for an hour, much less for 6. Earlier this year, I realized a dream I have had for a long time, to have a satsang here. So we have a very small satsang, about 5 or 6 regulars. I have missed several of the meetings because of my illness, and I have been very happy to see that the satsang meets without me and has gotten an identity of its own. That being said, the only activity the people in our satsang want to do is watch movies about Amma. I have suggested meditation, singing, chanting the 108 names of Amma, and unfortunately, all these suggestions have been met with a complete lack of interest. I did receive all the materials that a new satsang trying to get off the ground receives from the regional coordinator, including some instructions from Swami Dayamrita. According to those suggested guidelines, we aren't really a satsang. This group is more of a satsang to me, although as my health allows, I will go to our little satsang here and keep hoping that they will at some point be interested in doing some devotional activities.

Guest guest Posted November 23, 2005 Report Share Posted November 23, 2005 Dear Nieraka, Perhaps you can suggest to the group how much your heart longs to do the sadhana practices as other Satsangs do. We have even done the programs with as few as three of us and it has been sublime. Surely someone in the group has the same desire. Find those who want to do the program of a Satsang and begin anew. Even if it is just one other person-our Satsang began with only two women meeting do Satsang for two years. If you need help, let us know. adriane Ammachi, nierika@a... wrote: > > Malati wrote: > > Which satsang are you associated with? > Just wondering > Dear Malati ~ I live in Silver City, New Mexico, and I'm about 6 hours away > from the nearest satsang, which would be Albuquerque.
