3. Become Love!

This Song's Story

Become Love! This song was inspired by Amma's words during a phone call on Guru Poornima to the Amritapuri Ashram, in which She mentioned "and how many of you have become love?" Her words stuck in our minds, and a few days later after morning meditation, this song came to us. By Her grace, we met Hector Rivera, who helped us to refine the tune, and with his Mexican background, gave it a defining beat.

We sang this song, borrowing a guitar from the Amritapuri music room, with Hector to Amma just before she left for Her 2004 Europe Tour. Amma was on the Green Roof, meeting with the ashramites. We crowded into a room which had a vent right next to her (since the crowd was too thick to actually get near Amma) and sang her Become Love and Nature's Child (maybe another album?). Amma seemed to like it, and said to come and sing in the hall, but we were too shy...

Until a ton of kids, eager to sing for Amma, descended on Amritapuri in the fall after the tour. Then we all sang it together, with gusto!
