Guest guest Posted January 4, 2003 Report Share Posted January 4, 2003 Blessed Siblings, This website allows you to offer your prayers, thoughts, joys, sorrows & worries to Ammachi: http://www.amritapuri.org/sevadesk/mailma.htm Has anyone tried it? I think the web administrator would take periodic printouts of such letters and give them to Amma. Any thoughts? Om Namah Shivaya, Ravi Mail Plus - Powerful. Affordable. Sign up now. http://mailplus.

Guest guest Posted January 4, 2003 Report Share Posted January 4, 2003 Dear Ravi, Yes, I use it whenever I feel the need--perhaps 3 or 4 times a year. As soon as you hit the "I offer this unto Amma" button a message comes up, "Your thoughts have reached the Divine Mother of the Universe." I find it very comforting, and have never failed to receive an inner message from Amma shortly after sending it. I guess I don't really think the printout matters. I'm sure the wording of the message was okayed by Amma. She tells us over and over that She's omnipresent, and what I get from this message is that She really wants us to "get" that. It's comforting, isn't it?

Guest guest Posted January 5, 2003 Report Share Posted January 5, 2003 Namah Shivaya dear Siblings in Amma, Dear sister, Jyotsna. So glad you are posting your diary. Since this is the anniversary of our visit to Amritapuri in 2000, will post a few of my own notes and stories when time permits. Regarding writing Amma,I too have found that Amma always answers every question if I ask sincerely, no matter what the form. As our Mother, she wants to teach us, and being open helps a lot. For a long time I was very sad that I couldn't speak Malayalam and talk directly to Amma as many of her children do. If I were younger, would be studying it as some of my younger family members and friends are. Anyway, some months back Amma appeared to me in a dream and said very clearly, "I speak English!" This is just one example of how she communicates. Often it will be through someone else, either directly, or indirectly. Or someone will send a post with Amma's words that speak directly to the question, etc. Some devotees I know are keeping a journal, writing to Amma as part of their sadhana. It's rather like having a private audience with her! One friend does archana every morning and writes in her journal. Amma always wakes her up at 4:30 so she can do this before she goes off to work. isn't that so sweet? I think the hardest part is asking the hard questions that involve truly surrendering and then having the patience and faith to accept the answer when it's not what we want to hear. In Amma's grace, premarupa Aum Amriteshvaryai Namah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just another way of looking at the matter.
