jai ma from dearborn!!

[Guest guest]

jai ma from Dearborn, Michigan, USA, in between the

morning and evening programs, as I catch up on my

e-mail, etc. from the Henry Ford Centennial library,

on Michigan Ave.. only minutes from Amma's Hyatt

hug-fest! yes, I am getting in my "educational visit"

(a Keval tradition since 1998!) at a local library!

 

good to see supriti, kenna -- maybe for the last time

in a long time unless in the unlikely event i decide

to go to amritapuri!.. and all of the other satsang

buddies I only see twice a year among the mosh pit of

devotees.

 

last night's darshan was also my amma doll's 5th

"birthday" (or the anniversary of when I adopted the

doll, or she adopted me, in Ann Arbor in 2001).. I

wanted to get her a Krishna bhava outfit, but didn't

find a medium-size one in a colour I liked..so I got

her a Sudhamani bhava outfit..which looks real kewl on

her.. when I went up for darshan I said it's my doll's

5th birthday .. even said it in Malayalam ("anchu

varsh")..Amma handed me apple, as well as the usual

hershey kiss and petals.. still havent eaten the

apple.. waiting until i get home and can put it on my

altar/peedam.

 

it's very warm here for almost december.. in the 60sF

(been using Celsius temps in Canada for so long, along

with gas in litres and distances in kms, i've almost

forgotten about the fahrenheit equivalents!) sure

doesn't feel like it's less than a month before

Christmas.. which is a good thing, since I detest the

commercialized greed and tinselized schlock that

always manifests in the days leading up to 12/25.. I

try my best to ignore the ho-ho-ho-ing and just let

the goyim have their holiday.. but if I hear "jingle

Bell rock" or Brenda Lee's "rocking around the

Christmas Tree" on the radio, I reach for my gun!
