Last Spring I received the "nudge" and guidance to go to Lake Titicaca. I was
all booked- vaccinations included- to go on a spiritual trip to Bolivia's sacred places in Tiwuanaku & Lake Titicaca for the solstice in June,
but had to cancel it only 2 days before for lack of funds. (My IRS rebate
allotted for this trip was "mysteriously" lost in the system, even thou I filed in January.)
I was all depressed
&
conflicted about NOT being able to go then, also because I felt I was
wasting my vacation week with nothing to do/go. But lo & behold....
on June 21st I somehow "found" online that, to my surprise, Mother Amma was
going to be here in Dallas the very next day. I had heard of her
but had
never sought more information. So, for the next couple of days I went
for
Darshan and received a healing of ALL my "mother issues"- even the ones I didn't know I had!- and then
during
the Devi Bhava ceremony (June 23) I received from Amma my mantra. I just knew
immediately that I had to get the Japa Mala initiation. Once again, I did not choose a guru, a Satguru came to me when I was ready. And she certainly did that for me! It all fell
into place as it should have been in perfect synchronicity after all.
(As it was too when the first Kryon books came to me in perfect timing.)
The moment she gave me the first HUG (darshan) and I smelled her flowery rose fragrance, I recognized that it was THE same scent I had been engulfed-in several times before: during my trails in Sedona, at several other spiritual workshops, etc... Aha! It was the Devine Mother who had always been there with me in my awakening journey!
Suddenly I knew I had to follow her to one of Amma's 4-day retreats, so it turned out that the one in Toronto in July fit my days-off schedule and I booked it as my birthday gift to myself! (The IRS money finally arrived in time for this!!) I guess it has been a year of "Divine Goddess" healing... So many synchronicity events happened during those days in the retreat. It was truly magical! I could see it all playing out like a game of chess.
I have not given
up going to Lake Titicaca. Later in Summer, I started reading a book by Jorge Luis
Delgado, "Andean Awakening", a must read, especially before going there! I'm hoping to make it there at
a later time, perhaps next year. I trust the guidance to go there,
though it may have been the wrong timing for me to go in June. Spirit works s l o w l y !
After meeting Amma Amritanandamayi, I've had a new-found peace that I had never felt before! Go see for yourself...
