What is the proper etiquette when meeting with Amma?
It is practice upon entering her room, to bow on bended knee. Upon rising, Amma will offer you some blessed water ( to be taken in your right palm) and drunk. She may place some Kum Kum (red powder) on your forehead. From that point you can ask Amma your questions and/or tell Her your wishes. A common part of worship is gestures of humility such as bowing, kneeling, lying face down. This a form of detachment and proof of the release of one’s ego and eventual surrender to the Divine.
