India Chapter 3

Please start from the beginning at Chapter 1

Wednesday morning I was up early for Breakky. The juice of the day was Papaya. I have since arriving home attempted to duplicate this awesome tasting juice with little success.

Everyone is still in some level of shock over the events of the previous day. Much of the information that I gave you was reported in the local newspaper.

I was hoping to find some souivener to bring home. I had walked the streets some, but felt uncomfortable going in and out of these small shops. There was a kiosk in the Hotel and I went in their to look at the shawls etc. My problem was that I didn't really need a shawl myself and could not think of who to buy one for. The Pashimina Shawls cost $10,000 R ($275 A) and the cheapest came to $5.56 A. Still, who to get one for. Finally I saw a singing bowl. I have been looking for one of these. He had two. He said that came from his family dating back 3-4 generations around 300 years old. Yeah right, I got a bridge to sell too.

I eventually purchased a 10 cm bowl that is about 4 mil thick. most all the bowls that I have ever seen tend to be fairly thin. This one is not and has a very nice sound to it too.

The word for today is that we are to go to Newman which is Sri Amma's Missionary school and Sri Amma Bhagavan are coming out from the Oneness University to let us sit with them for a bit.

Time of leaving has been changed to 14:00. I go back up to my room for some shuteye. When I wake I had left my window blinds open. . . I noticed movement and saw an Eagle sitting on the window sill. I had purchased a Digital camera before leaving Perth and the previous day played with it quite a bit. I eased up to the window and got many shots. finally since I could hear the bird Screeing, I decided to attempt the movie portion of the Digital ability. I got about 2 minutes of the Eagle calling out to something, somewhere. I can see a reflection of me in the window smiling ear to ear, ha ha ha.

Off we go to Newman. Once there we are fed into a medium sized room wtih 6 air cons running full tilt. We sit for about an hour waiting for what is next. I noticed a lady to my right not looking very well and encouraged her to lay down on the tile floor to rest. about 10 minutes later a group to the front starts chanting the Moola Mantra and everyone joins in. I have that recorded too. The recording is not as good as being there. Finally a Dasa comes in and gives us more info. Pretty much same as yesterday. Except that we weill be filed into another auditorium to meet wtih Sri Amma Bhagavan in 3 groups.

Eventually that happens. I am the last in of the third group. I had hoped to be the last in of group 2 and first in for group 3. Oh Well. As it turns out there were 3 more people latter than I. The last I encouraged to sit to my right where there was more room.

The curtains are opened and there they sat. Looking pretty much like they do in the many pictures that I have of them. Many people were moaning, giggling, swooning in their presence. I didn't feel that much I have to say.

After the curtains are closed, the last lady and I started to chat. Find out that she is from Burlington VT, fairly close to my friend up that way. I got her details to email to Elizabeth and Tara.

Out we go so that the next batch can come in. We westerners are much better behaved than the Indians of Yesterday. We stir for a while till our Guides find everyone and herd us off to the busses. Another interesting journey that I won't bore you with, ha ha ha. Back at the Hotel, I see Smitha the Asian lady that had gotten dizzy at Newman. I sit with her and a friend and they are wanting to know all that they can about my touch of Spiritually Guided Healing. They are off to a meeting and wish to give me a Deeksha. We could not find a good time, so decided to do it right then and there. Smitha's email address is 'iceheater' Her hands were so hot it was incredible. Her friend was no slouch either, ha ha ha. I had difficulty finishing supper before heading up to my room.

At Breakky on Friday morn, I met up with Kiwi Friend Kathleen. She tells me that a friend of hers on the Campus told her that all the Campus crowd was to be bussed to Newman today Friday. and that she and her friend Morea were heading out in a Taxi, did I wish to come??? YOU BETCHA!!!

Off to find out what time I need to check out, YIKES I have 15 minutes to pack and check out before we go. Whew! got it done. I stepped back into the Breakky room and saw Smitha. She told me that all at the table wished to have my healing. So, 6 quick healings then the restaurant people also wanted healing. I got another 4-5 of them before darting for the taxi.

Off we go in the Taxi. This fellow is much more cautious and it takes us quite a while to get there. As I am walking up the path I see Isha in front of me. I catch up with her for a few moments of conversation then head off with Kathleen and Morea to get near the gate as we have to leave asap after the Darshan. While waiting they decide to give Deeksha. I got 4 Deeksha before we got inside. It must have made a difference because this time when the Curtains were opened I had a real sense of the energy that Sri Bhagavan and Sri Amma were transmitting.

Afterwards I got 2 more Deeksha's. Later I was able to buy some photos of Sri Amma Bhagavan and a couple of books too. We got back to the hotel in time for Lunch and the crowd was mostly Indian now instead of mostly non-Indian. Later hanging out on the hotel lounges, the Koreans had returned from their tour and wished for more healing from me. After I requested Deeksha from them. I got 7 more Deeksha. We had been told here in Perth that a person ought to only recieve no more than 9 Deeksha in any one day.

Later at the Airport I received another 7 from the Chinese. I can say only that the trip home was unevenful and very peaceful for me, ha ha ha.

Well, there is my India trip in a nutshell. There is more, but, trivial and I may or may not add more later.

Best wishes to all of you.

peace

may you all be well and happy

PS. I leave for Fiji and Level One of Oneness Blessing in this coming Thursday evening.
