In Wild Heaven 

Hello 🙂

How are you? 

I am great 🙂 Being here with a direct physical incarnation of Divinity, living in harmony with nature,  people and animals and having an awakening focus to everything each day, feels like wild heaven… In fact, I heard a wonderful song of similar name on the plane jukebox flying here: R.E.M’s ‘Near Wild Heaven’. 

It occurs to me that the more we willingly relinquish in favour of Truth, Reality, unconditioned Love – the happier we are. Or at least, the happier we end up: it can involve a process, sometimes a rather long one – lol! I believe this is also why Amma recommends seva (selfless service) as the primary awakening practice for all her devotees. In the deepest place within, it quite simply makes a human being happiest to serve without personal gain. 

My friends and I have been sharing that it is actually difficult to do paid work here at the ashram, because one feels as if going against a great tide…as if, in the very air and atmosphere of Amritapuri, this dharma is flowing.  

As such, I have settled on a new schedule for Private Sessions while I am here with Amma. I have not yet settled on the same for the Groups, I am still feeling into that and patiently awaiting intuition. Therefore, for now I have cancelled all existing Group Healings, so please note this. 

I will be available for one Private Session per day on Zoom in the usual way, but for 7 days per week. Sessions will be at 2 30pm IST (9am GMT) each day. This begins on the 17th February. As a  reminder, I am returning to London on the 12th April and will adjust my availability accordingly at that time. Apologies if any of this is an inconvenience you. 

Here is the link to book Private Sessions (NB any which have been previously booked will not be affected and will go ahead) :-

I would like to share a couple of short points, from things I have learned by listening to the satsangs and my experiences here. 

One aspect of compassion is viewing all experiences which come to us – the good, the bad and the ugly – as gifts from God. When this attitude becomes true and real, the mind immediately becomes tranquil. 

Something crucial I find about Darshan with Amma, in particular when asking a question, is that – whatever I bring – Amma consistently responds with such a relaxed feeling and way about Her. It makes me feel that, if Amma is so relaxed about this, perhaps I can relax about it too. That is one of the greatest gifts Amma has given me over the course of my lifetime (and possibly many lifetimes – who knows?). 

One devotee shared a very beautiful thing which Amma once said : “At the end of our days on this earth, after all our successes and failures, the measure of our life will be how much we have loved” ~ Amma

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,

Amma’s Covid Relief Aid in India

Hello 🙂

How are you?

If you are looking for a reliable way to donate to the current Covid crisis in India, here are details of how to do so via Amma’s charity:-

The donation link for the “MA Centre U.K. Covid-19 India Relief” fund is now live. All money raised will go directly to India and will be pivotal to the medical and related relief efforts already provided by the Mata Amritanandamayi Math. NB: it is essential for you to choose “COVID-19 India Crisis” from the optional drop down list; if you fail to select this option, volunteers will be unable to categorise your donation into the covid-19 fund. I hope you share this link far and wide with friends, family and colleagues who are looking for a trusted source to donate to.

To obtain the link, please write to the email address provided on the ‘Contact’ page (as I was unsure if it would be appropriate to share this publicly). Apologies for the inconvenience.

The next Free Online Group Healing will be this coming Wednesday (19th May). Details to follow beforehand.

Love,
