Amritapuri celebrated Sri Krishna Jayanti with a variety of programs. The day began at 8 a.m. with devotional chanting (Nama Sankirtanam) followed by Go Puja (cow worship). In the afternoon, at 3 p.m., a grand procession took place at the ashram, where many children, including foreigners, dressed up as Krishna and Radha. The evening festivities included traditional games like Uriyadi, cultural programs, bhajans, and at 11:30 p.m., a Balagopala Puja, Bhagavata recitation, and prasadam distribution, all in the divine presence of our beloved Amma.

In her Sri Krishna Jayanti message, Amma said, “The word kṛṣṇa means ‘one who attracts and gives joy.’ From the moment Kṛṣṇa took birth in Kamsa’s dungeon to the moment he ascended to heaven, all his actions were heart-captivating. His actions uplifted and gave enormous joy to humans. Kṛṣṇa was a purṇāvatāra—a complete and perfect incarnation.

“His life had the splendor of the peacock feather, the perfect harmony of the songs flowing out of his flute, and the purity of the Tulasi leaf. Kṛṣṇa’s life was a commentary on the Vedāntic principles and an interpretation of the dharma that befitted the age. Interaction with Bhagavān became a yoga—divine union—for everyone.

“Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s life was a flow. In the grand flow of his life, he did not reject any part or role assigned to him. He fully immersed himself in every role he undertook and played it to perfection. This is why he was able to face every circumstance with a smile.”

In this insightful video, Amma shares profound lessons about the importance of true understanding and the avoidance of spiritual missteps. Through a humorous and instructive story about a devotee who misunderstands his guru’s instructions, Amma highlights the necessity of sincere and correct spiritual practice. She emphasizes the importance of learning from our mistakes, rather than repeating them, and how critical it is to refine ourselves from within.

Amma also delves into the invaluable role of the guru in a disciple’s spiritual journey. She explains how the guru’s actions, guided by divine insight, aim solely at the disciple’s growth and betterment. Amma underscores the significance of the guru-disciple relationship, comparing a spiritual aspirant without a guru to an orphaned child, and how the guru’s advice and blessings are crucial at critical junctures in life.

Join us to explore these timeless teachings and learn how to walk the spiritual path with clarity, sincerity, and the right guidance.

After her four-day program in Oakland, Amma arrived in Los Angeles for her programs at the Hyatt Regency, Irvine, California. Devotees from across California gathered joyously to welcome Amma after a five-year hiatus.

The event was filled with spiritual activities and loving moments. Amma led meditation sessions, delivered soul-stirring satsangs, and sang heart-touching bhajans each day. She gave darshan to thousands, sharing in their joys and sorrows day and night.

Notable attendees included Maria Shriver, former First Lady of California when Arnold Schwarznegger was Governor, and her daughter, Christina Schwarznegger. Shriver is also a broadcast journalist, a trailblazer in women’s empowerment, and a member of the Kennedy family, an American political dynasty known for its spirit of public service. They both sought Amma’s blessings in spending time with her.

After concluding the program, Amma and her tour group travelled to New Mexico for the next leg of America Yatra 2024.

After her four-day program in Los Angeles, Amma arrived in Albuquerque, New Mexico, for another four-day program at the Hotel Albuquerque in Old Town. Huge crowds assembled to receive Amma’s darshan, coinciding with the auspicious festival of Guru Purnima.

The celebrations began with a satsang by Swami Amritaswarpananda Puri, Amma’s most senior disciple, on the greatness of the Guru. Amma then led bhajans, meditation, and world peace prayers.

Pujya Swamiji conducted the ceremonial worship of the Guru, with devotees deeply absorbed in the rituals, expressing heartfelt gratitude. Swamis and Swaminis garlanded Amma and received her blessings on behalf of everyone.

Addressing the gathering, Amma spoke on the significance of Guru Purnima.

“Human life is intended for an exalted goal. Each individual possesses at least a subtle awareness of the divinity within. Every human life is a quest for this divinity. In one way or another, every human being is continually searching for that completeness. However, currently, we are searching for that inner completeness in the external world.

“The source of happiness and love is within us—in the True Self, the ātmā. Unfortunately, we are under the delusion that we are this perishable body. We are in the darkness of ignorance of our true nature. The guru is the one who removes the darkness of ignorance and shines the light of true knowledge.”

Amma distributed prasad to all participants and gave darshan to the thousands who attended. Amma and her tour group are now set to travel to Washington for the next program.
