The Real Centre of Life 

Hello 🙂 

🕉 Om Amriteswaryai Namah 🕉 

“Regardless of all we have accumulated or are striving to accumulate, for most people life still feels incomplete – like the letter ‘C’. This gap, or lack, will always be there. Only spiritual knowledge and realisation of the Self can fill this gap and unite the two ends which will make it like the letter ‘O’. The knowledge of ‘That’ alone will help us feel well grounded in the real centre of life.” ~ Amma 

Please note : I will be with Amma in India 28th Dec – 21st March. I will miss you all very much. I am sorry for the short notice – I only knew myself a few days ago. I plan to open my full schedule while there, so private sessions and Groups will run as usual 🙂  

The next Free Online Group Healing is tomorrow 12th December @ 1pm London time.If you feel drawn to do so, please let your friends / fam / etc. know by sharing this link with them. Please book your place if you can remain on Zoom for the duration (1hr) in a quiet space free from distractions. Thank you🙏 

During Europe Tour, Amma kept saying in Her speeches that without the passport of compassion, we cannot gain the visa of liberation. This is so true… It also somehow reminded me of something Adyashanti once said, that Truth is not Truth without Love. He went on to explain that if we tell a truth to somebody without the heart of love in it, then it becomes not the truth at all. My belief is that for either of these, we need to be in touch with the Divine Feminine, which resides inside all beings. The effulgent inner waters of patience, love, compassion and empathy bring the most delicate wisdom to our interactions, situations and dilemmas.

I believe it was Brahmacharini Amrita Chaitanya who recounted this beautiful story, during a speech she gave on Europe Tour. There was a schoolteacher who came to Amma for darshan and spoke about an incident at her school, where she taught Maths to young refugee children. The children were learning about fractions and the teacher was conveying the difference between 1/2 and 1/4. She asked them, if they were offered chocolate, would they take 1/2 or 1/4 of it? The children replied that they would take 1/4. “Oh no”, thought the teacher, “They haven’t understood the lesson – they don’t know that 1/4 is less than 1/2.” So she asked them why they had chosen 1/4. As she was recounting this part to Amma, her eyes filled with tears. The children said they would take 1/4 so that other children could have some, who might not otherwise be able to have any. These refugee children had nothing, yet they thought of those less fortunate than themselves. If we all had such compassion in our hearts, what more would be needed to make this earth a heaven?

Amma’s Home 

Hello 🙂 

The next Free Online Group Healing is this Friday 13th June @ 1pm London time. If you feel drawn to do so, please let your friends / fam / etc. know by sharing this link with them. Please note that I will be in Amritapuri by then, so connectivity could be interrupted. However, the healing and benefits will not be interrupted (details about my visit are below). 

Please book your place if you can remain on Zoom for the duration (1hr) in a quiet space free from distractions. Thank you 🙏 

Some of you may have been wondering why you cannot find a session on my Calendly schedule anytime soon. It is because I have been in Cornwall with my family and am about to embark on a journey to Amritapuri. I’m really sorry that I haven’t let you know sooner.There are times when Amma calls us to Her suddenly and this is one of those times. I really wanted to explain, but simply haven’t had the chance to sit down properly and write until now. It was originally my plan to go to the ashram further down the line (like mid-July / August, not close to the Cornwall holiday), yet the Divine had other plans. I offer you my apologies for the abruptness of this announcement. 

I will be away 12th June – 17th July. I will not be offering individual sessions while in the ashram. However, the Free Online Groups Healings will continue – and from Amma’s direct physical presence 🙂 

There is a magical bodyworker available in London at my local yoga space, Samya Studios (in Islington) : Diana De Leon. Not only is her / their massage the greatest, but it is their compassionate, warm attitude and genuine comprehension of the human condition, which make every treatment so deep :-

“The current situation the world is facing is not under our control. But there is one thing we can always keep in check – our mental attitude. Let us be strong and optimistic. To do this, we should focus on the Eternal. We should hold tightly to the feet of Paramatma. This steadfast faith and focus on the Paramatma can lift us beyond all kinds of limitations.”

Divinity Dancing 

Hello 🙂 

The next Free Online Group Healing is this Friday 23rd May @ 1pm London time. If you feel drawn to do so, please let your friends / fam / etc. know by sharing this link with them.

I thought you might be interested in watching this informative video about Vortex Healing, from teachers Lorraine Goldbloom, Anthony Gorman and Daniel Wald. It is also a resource you could send to people who are looking for support on their awakening or healing journey :-

I find myself still in a very deep integration process after the recent Deepening in Divinity class I took in Boston. I cannot seem to come up with words to describe either the class, the impacts of it or where I am now in my embodiment. When something this profound hits you, there is almost a sense of disbelief, even while it is happening. All I wish to express at this point is, don’t ever lose faith or trust and don’t ever stop surrendering. When one begins to see the way things really are, automatically there is a recognition of just how Divine the whole of life actually is. And, perhaps also, how foolish one has been not to have seen that during some parts of the journey of life. 

Thank you to Egle Vilutyte and also to Ric Weinman for inspiring the title of this newsletter in your individual ways 🙂

I want to say how much I enjoy acknowledging the creative achievements of my clients 🙂 I consider them immensely brave and risk-taking and I see how daunting it is to enter this world as an artist. I think that’s perhaps having grown up amidst the peaks and troughs of my parents’ careers in the golden age of advertising. To continue in the vein of my last newsletter, I wanted to send you this link to Laxmi Hariharan’s new book [NB: her pen name is different] :-

By request from the last Group Healing, I am sharing the awakening which happened this year during The Magical Jewel class :- 

There was a meditation in which Ric Weinman asked the class to “use the world as the mantra”. All-of-a-sudden, for some unknown reason, I recognised immediately what was being pointed to. It was as if whatever Ric was instructing, I was able to sense both what he was talking about and where he was saying it from. So when the aforementioned words were spoken, I burst into tears and my breathing completely changed in seeing this : the world itself IS Divinity. 

Everything began to ‘become’ this beauty…and I couldn’t contain it. My body could not contain the revelation of that because of the depth it reached. Simultaneously, there was a sense of ‘this is the missing piece of the puzzle. This is what I always longed to admit to myself and to surrender to.’ I began more and more to perceive this true beauty and it broke my heart completely… Then the crying and the breathing really exploded even more and my body was breaking apart and melting away into That. I could see that every single thing was as-if being birthed by Divinity as its own Self. There was no longer any subject / object though : it was as if the world was the Divine in a complete and total way. The gratitude to perceive it all and the inherent joy of the world was totally overwhelming……… The beauty was so exquisite that I couldn’t contain in my body what I was feeling and so everything broke, again and again… The insights which were coming in were impossible to record mentally, but it was like a flow throughout the being. When I would pray to Amma, it was like She was melted into the world. 

I was shocked by two things : first of all, how could I have missed this? And secondly, how could I think that anything which had happened was bad or wrong? Then I started to feel this remorse about the things I had said about people or done or thought and I began to say sorry via inner prayer profusely. But when I said sorry, there was this benevolence and Love which met the apologies and were pouring over those “wrongdoings” like a kind of fluid of Love – yet beyond Love. Perhaps it was similar to what Adyashanti calls Redemptive Love. There was this profound sense of redemption of everything I had “done wrong” – and for everyone else too. I couldn’t believe I had ever thought someone had wronged me. That whole sense was completely gone……..and I saw that there was absolutely no truth in it. How foolish I had been not to see that no-one could ever do that and I could never do that. Everything was ‘forgiven’ so-to-speak, and then it was noticed that there was actually an inherent sense of forgiveness in the world itself. The world was forgiving everyone that was doing these things, including even me. And this was the overriding revelation : that the world itself is Divinity. There was no ‘Divine coming into creation’, there were no two different things happening, even though the Divine was birthing the world. At another time, this would have seemed like a paradox, yet there was no sense of paradox. All I could do, was to bow down in front of this beauty… Although there was no subject / object or anything like that, there was a bowing down in true reverence for what was being seen. 

There was an in-loveness with life, yet with everything being the same thing there wasn’t any neediness, attachment or drama. There were also no exceptions being made to this Loving : it was a total and utter thing. It didn’t make exceptions for this person or that person. I was praying, “Let me not forget this. Let me live from this, instead of going back to the old way of acting out and getting into dramas.” I was almost begging, “Let me not forget what I’ve seen. Let me live this now.” Simultaneously, strangely enough, there was such a stillness and a resting and a Silence. It was a recognition of what life actually is and how much I love it. It took me out of this ‘trying to get something from life’ and ending up eventually in despair, which was replaced with, ‘of course I love life!’ There was a distinct returning. It was a return to this absolute love of the world, this total Love…for no reason and with no agenda. From That, naturally arose tender celebration. 

Love,

Breaking Into Bhakti

Hello 🙂

How are you?

I am very well indeed and am now writing to you from London 🙂 

At the end of my stay in Amritapuri, which was filled with peace and happiness this time, I found myself sitting on the floor of the main hall for bhajans. My flight was to leave later on that night, so (in a way) I was saying goodbye to Amma. 

I’m going to try to convey what it feels like to be with this Living Master and perhaps a tiny bit of what She is doing with our paths to God-realisation. It is difficult to do so, partly because you have to have really stayed with Amma for a good amount of time to grok this, and partly because it is so tricky to communicate in words what is totally beyond words. Nevertheless, I feel to try. 

There was a particular bhajan which Amma sang that night which seemed to crack me open completely. I often feel that She takes us from a sort-of habitual mundane emotional state to the uppermost heights of what the passion for Divinity is capable of; and it can happen in a split second when She sings. All She needs is a tiny crack – a hair’s breadth of space – in which to reveal the Great Mystery in all its glory. As I was sitting there singing with everyone, this happened to a whole new degree. Amma leaves the very best til last 😉 

As my heart burst with longing, I started sobbing uncontrollably and there was a surrender which felt almost physical and beyond physicality at the same time, as if my heart opened from the front to the back (spine) and outwards, beyond…….. What I was feeling was a blend of the most immense gratitude, with joy – pure joy – and devotional Love (Bhakti). As my system underwent Amma’s ‘surgery’, I felt the return to Innocence, unconditional Love and the perception (as if for the first time) of what She is doing with us all. I could see in that moment, that Amma is the salvation for the whole of humanity. Ric Weinman once told me that She “has the long-haul job of transforming the heart of humanity” and Adyashanti once created a series about what he describes as ‘Redemptive Love’. It was as if those two insights came alive at once, yet in a brand new way, and then went beyond even that… 

There was this absolutely overwhelming – literally overwhelming – gratitude. It was for all of the above and also for the beyondness of what was being revealed, and yet simultaneously it was uncaused. There was zero sense of specialness, yet a complete sense of being present and available for the transformation happening through this body and heart and through the bodies and hearts of all those around me on that sacred ground. Perhaps it could be said that the small self / me / I suddenly broke open and was consumed by / merged into Divinity / became what it truly had always been. The crying was so intense that I couldn’t contain it in any way. I was floored byTrue Love, fiery devotion (which was also recognised as being choiceless) and the sense of being in the right place at the right time : of pre-destiny. That was mixed with the utter gratefulness for what Amma has done for us all, and how different things could have been if She hadn’t come to Earth during this era. This seeing engendered in me such confidence…….trust, surrender, and faith in the highest. It was breathtaking.

In the taxi on the way to Trivandrum airport afterwards, I noticed that there was complete Peace, “the peace which surpasses all understanding” as Adyashanti puts it. Thoughts would still arise and pass, but ‘witnessing’ – in the most engaged way – would simply perceive them, without interfering. It was a simple seeing, no more no less. I realised that you don’t actually need detachment when Bhakti has taken over. Love ‘becomes’ (so-to-speak) the only thing which makes sense. And the stunning thing is, it doesn’t even need to make sense.

“Those who know the Self are always compassionate. They wish to see society thrive in peace and harmony. 

Love is the very foundation, beauty and fulfilment of life. If we dive deep enough into ourselves, we will find that the one thread of universal love ties all beings together.

As this awareness dawns within us, peace alone will reign.” ~ Amma

Free Online Group Healings are back on :-)  

Hello 🙂

How are you? 

Yes, the Free Online Group Healings are back on each fortnight 🙂 🙂 🙂 Let’s come together again to water the seeds of faith, optimism and surrender, so that the heart can breathe again. Although each Group Healing will have a specific focus, they are also an opportunity to rest and to soak up the nectar of  the Divine practices you have been engaging in. Here, Divinity creates a space of softness and tenderness to heal, allowing many levels of intimate sharing to unfold – without pressure. 

The first of these is on the 6th October at the usual time of 1pm (Lisbon time is the same as London time). Here is the link to book your place :-

Please note that nothing changes with online private sessions here in Portugal. You can book via the usual link :-

I would like to end with a reminder that Truth lives in our bodies. It feels like an opening and it lands in our systems like a remembering. 

Love,

Amma’s Peace Prayer for Ukraine tomorrow + Free Online Group Healing on Wednesday

Hello 🙂 

Have you been itching to make a simple contribution to easing the suffering in Ukraine? If so, your opportunity is arriving tomorrow 🙂 Please save or jot down the details in the picture above (the time for UK will be 7pm). Over 900 people attended last week! Imagine the impact of that………

Alternatively, you could contribute financially to Amma’s charity work for Ukraine, which includes feeding, clothing and giving medical assistance to refugees crossing the border from Ukraine to Poland. Please note that Amma’s charity is unique because nobody in the entire organisation is getting paid. What you give goes directly to those in need, because there is no middle man.

https://www.paypal.com/donate/?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=86GSDHXVKGYU6&source=url

The upcoming Group will be about Faith. I have been receiving numerous signs, almost from every angle, to offer this as a theme. Similarly to how it takes a tremendous amount of Trust to rest in the unknown so that the known can reveal itself, Faith is a leap into the dazzling dark. Much of modern society secretly or overtly looks down on people who worship God or religion. However, is it not true that we are all already worshipping something..? Observe the relationship which many people have with status, for example, or with self-image. With power, wealth, with buying property, jewellery, with celebrities… I think you get the picture. In order to be worshipping anything at all, the ingredient of Faith has to be there already, inherently. But when we channel this self-effulgent Faith in a positive direction, we begin to live the potential of being human – of what it means to truly be alive and kicking. From this place, we can begin the journey out of contraction, self-centredness, separation and suffering, into freedom, Truth and Divinity. 

Often, at the beginning of our awakening embodiment evolution, we need an event like a miracle to inspire Faith in something deeper. I’m not saying this is necessary at all, but nevertheless, it is the way things tend to go. Here is a video which tells the story of such an event. If you don’t have time to watch it all, please watch from minute 9.22 to 16.36 :-

If you would like to attend this Free Online Group Healing, it is happening this Wednesday 23rd March @ 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 with me, you will receive an email (or text if you requested this when booking) with which you can rearrange or cancel your session, if you wish. That email may wind up in your spam / junk box, so please check. Here is the link to book Private Sessions:-

Please never contact me about rearranging, cancelling or scheduling : instead, simply utilise the email sent to you by Calendly for this very purpose.

And please also note that lateness, no-showing, cancelling or rearranging less than 24 hrs in advance of the session time will result in you being charged in full for that session. Thank you 🙂 

Quite a few of you have been asking, “When do we get the Truth Line?”, so I clarified this with Ric Weinman. That is in Core Veil class. Likewise, another curiosity has been, “When do I get to break the identity with my Home Energetic Body?” That is in Universal Veil class. 

See you soon, 

Love,

xDaisy
