Swamiji
introduced us to yogis, sadhus, gurus, and saints of India. Together we visited ashrams and holy places.
We went to visit Ananda Moyi Ma in her Vrindavan ashram.
Ananda
Moyi Ma welcomed us with her quiet presence . She did not speak but remained
centred in her omniscient stillness. We
felt blessed to see her and embraced by a love that was accepting of who we
were. Swamiji was internally connected
with Ma and had told us of her prior to this meeting. We had read of her in the famous book Autobiography of a Yogi written and distributed in the west by Paramhansa Yogananda. To actually be able to meet her personally was a dream come true for me. There I am in the picture standing beside one of her disciples. She was always surrounded by many chelas and at first we wondered whether they would bar us from seeing her, but through guru's grace, we found ourselves received graciously.
Jai Mataji!!!
