San Ramon is a very special place to spend time with her. I have seen her in many other places (although, not India), and San Ramon seems to have had the greatest intensity of the 'spiritual vibe' you describe. Some nights are more intense than others but there have been a few where I truly felt that the end of the night was like walking off of pluto and coming back to earth. Pluto being the place with non-linear time and space, with the magical feeling that you described permeating it all. I too have been amazed at the number of synchronicities, and just how beautifully things flow together when in her presence. to me it is testimony to the beauty of what underlies all of creation, so to speak, which - when I am able to keep this in mind - just gives greater heart to every day. (I also find it takes a month or so to get completely back to normal...not that normal is desirable after an experience like that!) This is such a great description of a devi bhava with Ammachi.

I will definitely make it a goal to stay until the end at some point - at least once. I think the problem is that I've never had that expectation and so I after receiving Amma's hug I can't imagine staying longer than I normally do. Thank you, Siva.

The ending is special where Amma showers flower petals on all and its really divine.. I hope you get to see it sometime... I enjoyed reading your narration.. Thanks Namahshivaya Chris
