Namah Shivaya Siblings of Amma,

 

Yes...pleeeeze keep the loving information coming in. I sit by the

computer every second I have with tears rolling down my face....as I

feel I am missing the opportunity of a lifetime to be at what I believe

is the first "Spiritual Olympics" in my lifetime....and done with such

precision, organization, and great hearts...........bless Amma for she

is the ultimate trend setter.

 

Om Namah Shivaya,

Amritavarshini
