Dear Susan,

I've been commissioned to tell you from the ladies of the Second Arch, especially the ones I was sitting with, Menakshi, Nirmala, and one very sweet-faced one whose name I can't remember as she is seldom there,..... all want you to know how much you are missed, that they love you and send you best and sweetest wishes. All feel it so unfair that you were sent away from your beloved Form and His divine culture....at least in the physical, and they said that you had become Indian. They tshed and tttufkkked, clicked and clacked, at the idea that you were forced to leave by their government.

I said you were now doing well and would return before too long....that in this Journey to Divinity, all earthly identity would have to go and they agreed. Our earthly identity Demolisher, our dear Rudra and beloved Mother, Your Tripura Sundari, (they remember your affections and devotions) is giving gorgeous Darshans from the chair only, no more car with reflected windows. And He's keeping us waiting and sitting for sometimes four hours, in the terrible heat, although it has finally cooled a little with the hint of monsoon in the air. I've been most lax, hiding away except occasionally, mostly practicing our U.S. Choir music and catching up on some of the delicious Sai reading, like Kasturi's daughter's book and the account of the Children's Project by Jyoti Gas, Begging for Change. Every Darshan, whether from our privileged section or anywhere else, outside or the back of the hall, is unbelievably sublime and uplifting.

I'd somewhat forgotten how amazing it is with so much time so far distant from Parthi,..... or He's simply amping up the Love as His body seems to be taking on more and more Karma for us all, for Humanity, for the Earth and the Universe. I suppose that is a metaphysical law and what He means by sacrifice; A direct correlation between sacrifice and spiritual power. It's simply breath-taking and out of this world. It feels even more a shame that we are not allowed to sit quietly in the hall after His great and loving Gift, true Epiphany.

Sending you sweetest loving vibes and sincere Sai Rams, Akasha
