Welcome

In this edition…

Amma Live from Amritapuri

beginning on Guru Purnima

As the world continues to struggle due to the coronavirus and​ the various social restrictions in place as safety precautions, Amma knows that her devotees around the world are feeling very sad because of not being able to see Her in person.

In order to help you feel more connected with Amma during this period, you can join a live stream of Amma's bhajans, meditation, peace prayers and satsangs by her monastic disciples daily.  This service will begin with Amma’s Guru Purnima programme from Amritapuri on the weekend of Saturday 4th July / Sunday, 5th July (for the exact date and time please visit live.amma.org). These live programmes will continue daily from 5pm-9pm IST (Indian Standard Time) (1.30-4.30pm UK time).

Even though there are no Retreats with Amma this year, you can support Amma’s charitable activities through these online events.

Those who wish to support Amma's humanitarian projects can do so by making a donation on the live.amma.org page.

From Amma's latest messages on COVID-19:-

 Pandemic is a warning from Nature to treat her with respect and to protect her

It is the duty of human beings to protect all living creatures,

seeing Nature as our mother.

The coronavirus is a wake-up call

"Many of us are following events closely on the Internet.  But this alone is not enough.  For a brief time, try to look into the “Inner-Net” as well.  This is a good time to try and understand ourselves.  Physical exercise is needed at this time.  Yoga is good for this.  Practise meditation.  Read spiritual books."

IAM 35 Refresher Course

Saturday 11th July 2pm

Amma emphasizes the importance of spiritual practice at this time. If you have lost the impetus of your IAM practice and want to start again or check anything that you're not sure about then this Refresher is for you.

It will be led by Mike Sofroniou via Zoom, and will last between two and two and a half hours. This session is for people who have previously learnt the full IAM(35) technique. It doesn't matter if you haven't practised it for some time — now is a good time to clear any doubts and reinvigorate your practice.

Please register online HERE and you will be sent a link to the meeting. The session will be limited to approx 15 people so that everyone can ask questions and contribute. It also means we will be able to see each other all together. There will be more sessions over the next few months.
