'My Seva Children!'
20 - 22 October 2000, Waregem
Belgium was a short drive from Germany. Local devotees and the
travelling group worked together to transform the enormous room
into a darshan hall. What a glorious surprise it was when Amma visited
the dining room the night before the first programme. All those
who were busy doing seva were blessed with a prasad dinner served
by Amma herself. Amma even stayed to eat dinner with her "seva
children" as she calls them. Most of them had not slept during
the Devi Bhava in Bonn the night before, but they all forgot their
fatigue as they watched Amma played with mesmerised delight. A very
special feature of the Belgium Devi Bhava was the wedding of two
close devotees. The Holy Mother beamed happily throughout the ceremony.
After the Devi Bhava, she wasted no time in continuing her example
of selfless service. When the inner temple curtains opened, Amma
had already started the work of cleaning. She showed absolutely
no strain, though she had just given darshan throughout the night.
