Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom. Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power. ~Lao Tzu~

The original plan was to attend Satsang with Kollur Swami this Monday morning. But Swami is in Kashi and Varanasi this week, and my Indian friend Dharma accompanies him. Florence wanted to join, so we were driving to Ammani’s Ashram. After Satsang, I saw Djamilla here for the first time. She wanted a private talk with Ammani, and Florence as well. Florence went in first, and I was waiting in the entrance with Djamilla and a friend of hers, Timo. When Florence was back, we started driving towards Gia Mantra. Djamilla and Timo would come later.

I thought it was my last chance to get a massage in India. So Florence and I went to the reception. There was an Indian lady, an ayurvedic doctor. I spoke with her briefly and made an appointment for Friday. I would receive a full-body massage and a steaming sauna. Florence would receive other treatments.

It was a good day for a swim in the pool; the sky was cloudy, so the sun would not shine directly on the pool. It was refreshing, although the water is very warm. When it was time for lunch at 13:00, I changed my clothes, and the buffet had already opened. We four had a good time there, it is a comfortable space. Today, they charged 200 Rupees for the first time using the pool.

Back in Perumbakkam Road, it was time to rest. I have been in the Ashram later and withdrew some money for the apartment, my scooter, and the treatment in Gia Mantra.
