Meeting Amma for the first time

Stop and Ponder said Feb 10, 2008, 5:37 PM:
 

Hi everyone.

I'm in a somewhat unusual situation where I have been involved with activities (like IAM, satsung, peace mantras) with devotees of Amma, but have yet to actually meet her.

Fortunately for me, I will be seeing her for the first time at a public meeting in Brisbane (Australia) on her Australian visit this coming  April.

My question to those who have met her before is: Is there any type of preparation or attitude one should have when meeting her?  Maybe there isn't anything I can do, but it is just a question I would like to ask, just in case some of you thought  in reflection on meeting Amma, 'Oh, I should of done this, or I should have spent some time doing that.'

Thanks

Hello!

Thanks for bringing me to this group! I have some books that will help you greatly with this question. I brought them at the retreat where I met Amma. One of them is all about other peoples experiences of meeting AMMA which I think you will enjoy. I will post them to you OK?

                           In any time we meet or see the Divine Mother an open heart is all that is needed. Each time you go to see Amma something new will happen in your life at each event. Be it blocks you might have on your sadhana path to starting a new path in your life it all happens when seeing Amma. You will have a great time.
