Ammazing!

Hello 🙂

How are you? 

It is so ammazing here… I simply don’t have words to describe… As someone once said in a documentary, Amma is an experience. 

I am sorry that I haven’t written for a while. Ashram life is completely absorbing on every imaginable level. I have decided not to offer Groups while here in Amritapuri. The Groups will resume once I return.

I am available for Private Sessions once per day on Zoom in the usual way, but for 7 days per week. Sessions will be at 2 30pm IST (9am GMT). As a reminder, I am returning to London on the 12th April and will adjust my availability accordingly after that. 

Here is the link to book Private Sessions. Please keep checking availability, as spaces sometimes shift around, and what you want becomes available :-

As a reminder, I have limited access to tech due to being in rural India, but the most effective methods for contacting me are: WhatsApp and Telegram. Please bear with me – thank you 🙂 

I heard these beautiful words from Shirdi Sai Baba – who was probably the most well-known avatar in India, whom even non-spiritually inclined Indians acknowledge to this day – and thought how easily they could also have been said by Amma herself :-

“I give people what they want, in the hope they’ll want what I have to give” ~ Shirdi Sai Baba

Free Online Group Healing : this Wed 30th Nov

Hello 🙂

If you would like to attend the next Free Online Group Healing, it is this Wed 30th Nov @ 1pm GMT. NB: please attend only if you can remain on Zoom for the duration (1hr). Here is the link you need for booking :-

Please note that you need to pre-book. You can also book as many Groups as you like in advance. 

For Private Sessions here is the link. You will receive an email (or text if you request this when booking) with which you can rearrange or cancel up to 24hrs before the start time :- 

Please do not contact me regarding scheduling, rearranging or cancelling : instead, utilise the email you receive from Calendly for this purpose. It could end up in your spam, so please check.

NB: lateness, no-showing or cancelling / rearranging less than 24 hrs in advance of the session time, will result in you being charged in full.

I will be reunited – finally – with my Guru in person after 3 long years 🙂 I am going to India from the 29th Dec – 9th Feb. Please note, I will not be giving sessions or Groups during that period. Most of all though, I want to welcome you to meet / re-encounter Amma if you would like to. I would be happy to see you in Amritapuri 🙂 🙂 🙂 

I would like to draw your attention to a podcast series from a member of this community, Max Buchmann. Check out ‘Heart of a King’ on Apple podcasts (and etc.). In particular, I recommend episode 15 although all of them are excellent. I feel the need for men’s inner work as a strong calling from our world today and I love Max’s approach and the light he brings. I was messaging with him recently because I was thinking about the true masculine and true feminine. Max came up with a succinct description which really encapsulated it :-

True masculine = I am loving, grounded presence

True feminine = life (without the feminine there would be no life and she makes everything truly come alive), openness, expression, connection, flow

By the way, it dawned on me recently to explain something important. I used to think that we weren’t allowed to be friends with our clients – as in the world of psychotherapy, for example. But I wrote to Ric at some point and he said this is not the case. I apologise if I gave anyone the aforementioned impression; it was because I didn’t know. I was once told by a gifted psychic and healer (Chetana Thornton) that it is part of my dharma to create community. So I have been pondering ways to expand upon the Group Healings. Perhaps creating get-togethers in person for anyone who would like that. At the moment, my housing situation won’t support it, but when I get back from India it will be more plausible. It is so enriching to come together as sangha and be in the company of like-hearted souls 🙂 🙂 🙂 

I hope this email finds you well and enjoying your weekend 🙂

Love,

Free Online Group Healing : 21/9/22

Hello 🙂

If you would like to attend the next Free Online Group Healing, it is this Wednesday 21st September @ 1pm BST. NB: please attend only if you can remain on Zoom for the duration (1hr). Here is the link you need for booking :-

Please note that you need to pre-book. You can also book as many Groups as you like in advance. 

For Private Sessions here is the link. You will receive an email (or text if you request this when booking) with which you can rearrange or cancel up to 24hrs before the start time :- 

Please do not contact me regarding scheduling, rearranging or cancelling : instead, utilise the email you receive from Calendly for this purpose. It could end up in your spam, so please check.

NB: lateness, no-showing or cancelling / rearranging less than 24 hrs in advance of the session time, will result in you being charged in full.

Following the previous Group Healing, I received a deeply touching email from one of you, along with other messages and emails about your experiences. These are always gratefully received, so thank you 🙂 I am including parts of the aforementioned email anonymously:-

I had my first mini-bhakti today, most likely because of your group healing. I loved the story of Amma, then the healing itself in which I felt things, then your email about weeping and crying out to Divinity…so this afternoon, during a transmission in which I felt that the Merlin-mantra was only coming out of my mind, I somehow could surrender and open up, give in to a longing for connection with Merlin/Divinity, and I was in tears, and ‘held’, seen. ’Twas a small wonder, and all because I attended your group healing…”

I want to acknowledge the death of the Queen, the appointment of King Charles III and the appointment of Prime Minister Liz Truss. Quite an epic rollercoaster for the UK / Britain, in the space of only a few days!! Whatever your view may be, it is a significant loss and one which has been felt in some way by everyone, particularly in London. I like this endearing video, which discusses some of the higher and deeper impacts :-

There is a remaining opportunity to take the Foundational training in Vortex Healing very soon, but you will need to book this asap. Here are a few details from Anthony Gorman :-

Foundational Training: 27-31st October

https://anthonygorman.org/Foundational.html

…region 4, and anyone in region X can also join as a first-timer: https://www.vortexhealing.org/Policy-BookingVirtualWorkshops.pdf

…a few spots for repeaters…….if you feel drawn to join, you can book directly on https://www.anthonygorman.org/AdvancedTrainings.html

‘Yantra Fridays’ with Anthony are back on 🙂 These are free and they are seva (selfless service) for the earth and humanity. Anyone who has completed the Foundational training (or above) can participate. Please contact me if you would like to do this and do not have the details to join. These sessions are very powerful indeed: yesterday, I participated and a friend of 20 years spontaneously called me straight afterwards, who had also been there. We could barely communicate at first, because we were so blasted by the intensity of the energetic from the Divine Doors. We were just laughing so hard! Unbeknownst to us during the Yantra, our brains had been reconfigured in some way – perhaps an upgrade – which I am still feeling today. It’s like a kind of bliss and harmonisation. 

Are you interested in learning a meditation technique directly from Amma’s mind? The IAM (Integrated Amrita Meditation) Technique came about in 2004 (if I remember correctly). Apparently, Amma went for a walk around Amritapuri ashram in the wee hours of the morning, when no-one was about, and the steps came to Her one-by-one in a vision while gazing at the sea. I first learned it that same year, at the San Ramon ashram. I found it tremendously helpful each morning during my brief affair with Advertising. When in the office, I felt I had a shield of protection around every part of me and a direct link to Divinity. Further down the line, I experienced samadhi for a few seconds during one part of the practice. Incredible… If you would like to investigate online options with this technique, please write to me and I will forward you the information you need to learn it anew, or to refresh your old practice. 

Did you know that you can see Amma live online every day? What a wonder…we are so blessed and graced to have the chance to be with a living Divine incarnation – a pure and direct embodiment of Divinity in human form – so regularly and easily 🙂 🙂 🙂 It is the first time in the history of the world that this is the case. Ever since the original pandemic lock-down, Amma has been providing this spiritual lifeline to all those who have met Her in-person or who have done seva for Embracing The World. If you are already watching – fab (and hopefully this is also a reminder) – but if you qualify and don’t yet have access, please write to me and I will explain how. Amma is currently back in the ashram in India (Amritapuri), following the inauguration of the Faridabad hospital in Delhi. You are free to visit 🙂

Free Online Group Healing: Breaking Our Addiction to the Next Moment

Hello 🙂

How are you? 

In many ways, it is our addiction to the next moment which keeps the whole egoic structure going. The ‘I’, the ‘me’, the source of separation and suffering, depends upon time. Contrary to our reflex and to popular belief, we do not need this ‘I’ in order to function optimally. 

Whatever is happening, we feel sure that it could be improved upon – or that a catastrophe is about to happen – and so we dream of the next big thing, the future, the soulmate, or of escaping disaster, of being saved etc. Therefore we will not allow ourselves to stop. 

But it is in stopping, deeply and truly, that we are able to break these fantasies. As it all breaks down, we finally get in touch with the Divinity within. This is the stillness, Love, peace, harmony, and more, which we are seeking. In fact, everything we thought we were going to find in what is beyond the now, is already here. The contrast is quite incredible, between where we thought we would find all this and where we do find it. Divinity is revealed to us by resting gently as awareness: simply by doing that and nothing more than that. 

The Free Online Group Healing on this, will be on Wednesday @ 1pm BST. NB: please write to me at the email stated in the ‘Contact’ section, in order to be added to the group email invitations for these sessions.

On a different note, here is a message from Amma’s UK ashram:-

‘We are delighted to share that, as of 2 weeks ago, our Covid-19 fundraising campaign for India raised just over £10,500 (from 106 donors). Thank you to everyone who donated, spread the word and shared the link. As the need is high, we will keep the campaign running for a couple more weeks – pls do share this update with anyone you know who has contributed or would still like to. (Select “Covid-19 India Crisis” from the optional drop-down menu) 

Wishing you all a beautiful day with Ammas Infinite Grace.’

Love,

xDaisy

Ps As a little boy in Amritapuri (Amma’s ashram) said to Amma during a public Q&A a few days ago, “When we turn towards the sun, there is no shadow. There is only light. But when we turn away from the sun, there is a shadow. Likewise with God. When we turn towards God and face That always, there will be no shadows.”

Amma Live Tomorrow

Hello 🙂

Thank you to all those who attended the Group to heal Shame this Wednesday. I was deeply moved… Thank you for having such courage and for those who shared, to share in the way you did.

Amma is transmitting her monthly live public program online tomorrow 🙂 🙂 🙂 It begins at 12 30pm BST. There is a beautiful – and extended – White Flowers Meditation translated by Shubamrita or Swamiji, followed by a speech about personal experiences with Amma from one of the brahmacharis / brahmacharinis / ashram residents. Some of these speeches (satsangs) have been incredibly touching and transformative to be part of. The fire of devotional connection with the Guru is actually what I feel most deeply (of anything in my life) and sometimes these speeches communicate the wordless vastness of that surprisingly well. Amma will sing bhajans (devotional songs to the Divine) with her band and there is Arati (the fire ceremony). The whole program is usually about 4 hours. As such, feel free to dip in and out, or even have it on in the background if there is no other choice. You can also watch it on your phone if you are in transit. Simply the energy and consciousness coming through your screen will create healing for you, your home atmosphere and the people around you, I can assure you. 

You need to register, but it is free, as is everything which Amma does because it is always offered as seva (selfless service) :-

Looking forward to seeing you again in a coupe of weeks time at the next Group,

Love,
