Favorite scene from In God's Name

[Guest guest]

My favorite scene was seeing Amma in her room, watering her plants

lovingly..That really touched my heart. Merry Christmas everyone! In

Amma's arms, mare

Having the water flow over the hand like that is done in puja, right?

Wasn't there footage of Big Swami doing pada puja like that, when

bathing Amma's feet? I'm guessing it would be done with mantras

while pouring. I used to do that to the cooking water when I cooked

for Mother's Kitchen years ago. I used the Mrytyunjaya Mantra.

 

I didn't like the fast cuts in the show. Barely 10 seconds and

they'd switch to someone else, or a scene from nature, or more inane

babble from the directors. At times it felt like watching someone's

vacation slide show, with all the photos of themselves with the people

featured. Show offs...
