Transform our life into Siva – Sivaratri Celebrations 2022 at Amritapuri Ashram – Highlights
Keeping awake is symbolic of the kind of awareness and oneness of purpose that a spiritual aspirant needs to reach the goal. He cannot afford to be slack even for a moment.
Shiva is the Supreme Consciousness that illuminates the three states of waking, dreaming and deep sleep. Offering the threefold Bilwa leaves to the Shivalinga heralds the return to a level of consciousness beyond the three states, which is the fourth state, Turiya. The dawning of that state is consonant with the awakening of the individual.

Kartika Puja Highlights – February 19, 2021 – Amritapuri Ashram
A monthly birthday is traditionally observed in India based on the moon’s position at the time of birth. The moon returns to this spot in the heavens, approximately every 28 days. Karthika is the Nakshatra – star constellation- in which the moon was transiting at the time of Amma’s birth. As such every month on the day of Karthika, we honor Amma’s birth with a puja.

Sunday Meditation Retreats for Renunciates at Amritapuri Ashram
Every Sunday, the Sevaks, Brahmacharis and Sannyasis attend a 7hour long Meditation Retreat. Trainings in various #meditation techniques, #japa and #sadhana are instructed.
As Amma always reminds us that mastering our minds is the way to eternal bliss, it is very important to learn techniques that helps us to improve our concentration.
“Meditation is remembrance of God, constant and loving remembrance. Consider Him as your beloved or just consider yourself as His child. Or consider Him as your father or mother. Simply try to think of Him just as we think of our father or mother or beloved. How does a lover remember his beloved? Certainly not by sitting in lotus posture. The remembrance simply happens in him while he is lying down, walking or sitting on the banks of a river, or it may happen while he is at work. It does not matter where he is or what he is doing. Likewise, remember your beloved deity whenever you can no matter where you are or what you are doing.”
