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 : 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 🙂

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,

Free Online Group Healing (tomorrow)

Hello 🙂

The next Free Online Group Healing is tomorrow @ 1pm BST. NB: please attend only if you can remain on Zoom for the duration (1hr) :-

Please write to the email on the ‘Contact’ page, requesting to be added to the group email invitation.

A funny little synchronicity happened today. I had been planning on writing to you with a link for Amma’s Pujas in her Amritapuri ashram, in order to support your lives and processes. Today, I happened to use a Vortex Healing technique to perform a Puja for one of you, in session. So it seems as if Pujas – and the magic and Grace of them – are in the air 🙂 

These Pujas in the Indian ashram are performed in the traditional manner, by Pujaris chosen by Amma who have a deep alignment with the Divine. Amma very recently said that the world is going through a malific period in terms of Vedic astrology. So it would actually be ideal to get a Puja done at this time. All proceeds go to Amma’s charity ‘Embracing The World’. This global humanitarian initiative provides a Covid 19 relief program to Indians with no other assistance, pensions for women, financial support for orphanages and speciality hospitals across India, amongst many other projects. No one in the entire organisation is paid (or has ever been), including Amma: all work is carried out voluntarily as seva (selfless service). Please peruse this link at your convenience :-

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,

xDaisy
