    Dearest Lorna,
    Wow! I think even contemplating the life of a cloistered nun is an amazing step!
    There is so much to say.
    We - my two children Lincoln 12 years then, and daughter Annika age 11 - came to Amma's ashram in 1999.
    On June 21, 2007, my daughter died of an undiagnosed illness, in San Ramon. She wanted to be a brahmacharini and a surgeon.
    My son, Link is now in his final year towards his BTech - Mechanical at the Ashram managed University.
    If you send me your more personal email address, I would feel more free to respond on this...
    Loving you,
    Aunty Kamala

    The Black in America 2 program on CNN last night was amazing! As an educator, I would encourage those who missed it to try to catch the rerun whenever it is shown. There were several teary moments which reminded me why I'm in this business to begin with. The program was inspirational. Please read: http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/2009/black.in.america/community/culture3.html to get more information. Part II airs tonight.

    Dearest Lorna,
    Thanks for the tip, Amma came home, and we've all been absorbed in ashram activities. Just simply keeping up with her schedule of coming and going, is in itself full time. And we are just sitting there, while she is engaged in immense activity.
    I don't know if any of her darshan clips are on the amritapuri.org or ammachi.org sites, but, if you see those, you can see that she is moving like a tornado, while those around are, by contrast, standing still...
    There is also a film called 'Darshan' by a French producer, Jan Kounen.
    Loving you,
    Aunty Kamala
