When living in Muddenahalli (for eight months in 2019) I made it a habit to travel after Swami, whenever he was on the go. His name is Madhusudan and he used to be a student at one of Sathya Sai Baba's schools. A Russian lady had the same intention as me and she joined me in Colombo. We travelled across Sri Lanka in one day and arrived just in time when Swami arrived! During our trip we came across deer, a peacock that flew away and we saw elephants in the distance. In between we took a break and had lunch at a beautiful lake. Swami came to the Medical Center in Batticaloa. When we arrived, they didn't want to let us in. I thought: This cannot be happening! We travelled all across Sri Lanka especially for this! Finally, we were allowed in anyway. Swami was even so nice and invited all of us, to eat supper with him! He distributed ice cream to each and everyone of us single handedly. Then he invited us to stay in Muddenahalli for Shivarathri! Our hotel was right next to the beach. Each party had their little hut. The next day we took the taxi again and drove to the Medical Center. We visited the place, where the future hospital was to be built. Again, we were allowed to eat lunch there. Later we went to the beach. It was too hot for me. My Russian friend and I were again obsessed to follow Swami the next day, even though it didn't make any sense. Swami already took the helicopter yesterday and flew to Hatton. Despite of this fact we drove to Hatton to the same place Swami had been. In the mean time he had left already. We took photos and were allowed to go inside the house. We stayed in a hotel in Hatton. The next day we visited Kandy. On the way there we came across a tower and drove there. The tower is called Ambuluwawa tower, is 48 meters high and was built in 1588. It is at a height of approximately 1000 meters above sea level. I went up the tower almost to the top. But it got so narrow that it looked dangerous to me and I preferred to go down again. This place is also special for the reason, that it included almost all the religions: Christians, Buddhist, Moslems and Hindus. It is a Multi-Religious Center. Later we visited the Bahirawakanda Buddha Statue. This statue was built in 1972 and is almost 27 meters high. It took 20 years to build it. On January 6th we drove to Bentota and stayed at a hotel right at the beach and it also had a swimming pool. First we spent time at the beach and then visited another buddha statue. The next day we swam at the beach and in the pool. There was another buddha statue for us to visit. My friend stayed longer in Sri Lanka. I drove to the airport. I arrived on time in Muddenahalli for the evening singing. Afterwards I ate supper at the canteen with my German friend. I hope you enjoy the pictures!
