Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 I sense it may be " politically incorrect " to suggest our Beloved Ammachi is in any way subject to limitations of the body. Yet I'm aware from what was said in Seattle on May 30th that during a recent tour in Brazil, a group of indigenous natives there asked to be able to " dance for Amma's health. " Having been told Ammachi is experiencing spinal degeneration from the immense amount of time she devotes to hugging us, owing to my love and gratitude to her, I've decided to speak the " unthinkable. " I know many believe Amma is " above all this " and is " not her body. " Nonetheless, I see she has someone rubbing her back consistently during Darshan, and have been told from one support person that, " Jesus was crucified on the cross. Amma is crucified daily. " So I wish to propose an outrageous possibility here. I invite the entire body of Mother's children to " switch " from prayers and appeals that ask for her help to sending our prayers and healing energy to her. And is this not entirely what this teaching is about? Has not Ammachi's message and that of any great Satguru been that " we are God " ? Is this not the ground of " Namaste " ? I believe we have an opportunity here to set in motion a significant spiritual shift, if not one that has been the inevitable design of humanity all along - i.e., one in which a critical mass of devoted, aware individuals actually reach down within themselves sufficiently to shift us from acting as limited humanoids to being the larger Spiritual force we've spent so much time and energy " seeking. " Truth is, WE are not our bodies. Nor, in my own opinion (and that of grand teachers), is Life about merely being born only to hopefully become enlightened, drop the body and go off to Nirvana or Heaven. Indeed, if that " Isness " we've called " God " is " Everything that is, was and ever shall be! " - then we, this, and this body is It if one truly wishes to look God in the face. I personally do not view it merely as some temporary container to eventually be disposed of, rather Divinity Itself manifest in matter for a specific purpose. I am reminded of Sri Aurobindo's message that ... " Man is NOT the end of the evolutionary ladder. And life is not about being born to grow up, get educated, have a family, grow old, and go off to Nirvana. It is about the 'SupraConscious' inserting itself fully in matter. This process has necessarily had to occur over a long expanse of time involving error and falsehood, for it is only through the error and falsehood that we expand enough to take that Force in. And obviously that force could insert itself in this body in a heartbeat; yet, it would crack the vase, so-to-speak. " I believe we have an opportunity now to become more than we have been - more than simply seekers and mere devotees. I believe we have an opportunity to " BE " that which we seek, and in doing so, from our extreme gratitude and love to send to Ammachi the very mass of love, blessing and healing energy we have been receiving from her so long. My new mantra is " Ammachi's body is totally healthy! " Akin to " Let there be light! " , I now invoke and vision this reality.

Guest guest Posted June 11, 2008 Report Share Posted June 11, 2008 dear beloved sibling.what you have shared is very heartfelt and sincere,however please be so kind to open your heart to this as well. AMMA is considered by thousands to be an incarnation and that means that the limitations that SHE appears to have are brought upon HER by HER WILL. In AMMAs awaken children books,AMMA has said that when we percieve the illusional limitations of our GURU it weakens our FAITH. if it is your dharma to pray for AMMAs body that is between you and HER and beautiful,however AMMA is forever in the WITNESS STATE and beyond what we perceive as the BODY.this is not philosophy.all we have to do is to look with a deeper vision. AMMA could not suck the leprosy out of a man's body with HER own mouth ,if SHE was not beyond HER body.CHRIST did the same thing.If you pray for AMMAs body,it is for you and not AMMA. all i humbly ask is that you stay aware of THAT. if we pray for AMMA ,it is to open our hearts to LOVE ,not to help heal AMMA in anyway.AMMA is ALL-FULL,PERFECT ,WHOLE AND COMPLETE.SHE IS ALSO MAHA-MAYA.the master of illusions. AMMA HAS ON A NON-STOP BASIS TRAVELED THE WORLD SINCE 1987 GIVING A HUG OF UNCODITONAL LOVE.this alone is proof that SHE is beyond body limiations,yet SHE does APPEAR to have them.we pre-impose our limited visions on HER,that is all. lastly,it is AMMAs will that HER body be used up in the way that is being used.it is what SHE wants.i humbly suggest that we stick with " MAY ALL BEINGS BE PEACEFUL AND HAPPY " .there are beings that are truly suffering that need prayer.AMMA is not one of them.SHE LIVES IN BLISS ALWAYS............love you Ammachi keolalani.koaloha Wed, 11 Jun 2008 14:56:36 +0000 Daring to speak of Ammachi's health & invite us to send healing energy to her I sense it may be " politically incorrect " to suggest our Beloved Ammachi is in any way subject to limitations of the body.
