Hi Ananda,

Thank you for sharing this. Even though you feel tired, it is actually a very beautiful state to be in. I am moved to tears. I have recently entered into what can be called the "water phase" after so much burning on the physical/astral planes. I just can't see/read/hear anything inspiring without getting my eyes moist...

You are ever so close to Rumi now....

Ananda 2009 feels more innocent than the 2012 version... But i must admit that my trip with ayp over the years has changed me a lot to the better... Plus it has given me many friends around the world... And most importantly the chance to make a positive change via the arabic website. We have a very beautiful group from all the middle east who is involved in ayparabia. In gratitude to yoganiji and to all my ayp family. Love u all and nagging for the beloved is still the best... Nowadays i am even more stuborn... Always waiting at the steps of your door my beloved Allah. I am nothing without u. U r my all and my only. Love, ananda

Hi Ananda, sometimes one might feel less innocent when, in fact, one gets purer, no?
My experience with AYP is very similar to yours. Gratitude is the word. My true family is the AYPers I met. And I'm going back to China to see what I can serve besides the Chinese translation of AYP. How's your trip to India? Where did you go? Do you write/blog about it? I'm feeling called to go to India soon....

Hi Pheel, it seems like we are really flowing on the same current... I wish I could visit China someday... I've written about my last trip to India last year in the forums: http://www.aypsite.org/forum/topic....chTerms=Tiru

I am going to go at the end of this month again for two weeks... I will stay at Amma's ashram for a few days and then go back to Tiru... This time I'll get the chance to meet Ramana's great grandnephew Ganesan...

If you like to or anyone else does... He/She can tag along with me and my friend...

Much love to you.

Ha, Ananda. We are rally flowing in the same stream: I just received a darshan from Amma. and one of the planned destination is Amma's ashram. I wish I'd have the luxury of staying there for a long period of time, even though the max. for a stay is 6 months....
I won't be able to make it this month. But I'd love to meet Ganesan in Tiru...
Thanks for sharing your trip.
Love and Bliss to you, brother!

Hi Ananda, there might be, or probably will be, a small scale retreat in the vicinity of Shanghai. We'd love to have you there, if you can make it. If life circumstances do not allow, pls come to China later. Genuine spirituality is what this country needs most....and would love to see you in person...
