One Year Later for AHAM & Ramana

This is a short message to direct everyone to a blog that was recently done by Richard Clarke around the special ceremony given to our Ramana one year after his passing. It occurred in our AHAM Ashram on February 15, 2011.

This event is one that follows the Hindu tradition ("when in Rome, do as the Romans do"). It is believed in their tradition the beloved one, or teacher in this case, returns each year to be with their loved ones. So, we as the ones who represented all those who love Ramana, were present at his shrine with the offering of flowers and many different things to honor his presence in all of our lives.

So, you can connect with Richard's blog to get all the details at:http://richardarunachala.wordpress.com/2011/02/20/one-day-ceremony-for-a-ramana/

It was a beautiful completion for this one to be with Ramana in this way, to offer the sacred ash to his shrine and to sing his favorite songs, "The Lord's Prayer" and "I am in All" (the chant he wrote years ago).

I am in All

All is in me,

There is no other apart from me.

I am in you

You are in me,

There is no "you" apart from me.

I'm in the world

The world is in me,

There is no world apart from me.

I am in God

God is in me

There is no God apart from me.

I am in All

All is in me,

There is no other

There is no "me."
