Music+Amma's blessed talkativeness:audio exhibit!!!

Rhapsodizing about a single person will surely have its expiry-date.But Amma single-handedly takes down all possible mountains and screens with verve and such joy it can bring tears to the driest of eyes!
There is Amma's keen eye for neatness;she keeps such a spotless living room and displays all the showpiece items for display she's collected over time from the places we've been,with such neatness and regality you'll have to check whether you are or not in the presence of the divine. 

Its potentially endless:the list of pics I could post here to prove my point which can be understood by a single view of our living room when you walk in the door.

After all this connection to visual splendor,how can one not mention that Amma is well on the way to finishing the list of Thiruppugazh[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thiruppugazh] chants as part of her class.
I have uploaded a recording of her singing here:Amma singing Thiruppugazh
If I recall,Amma has been around all the time I took Carnatic lessons from T.M.Krishna,learned Carnatic also from Mahamahopadhyaya Nookala Chinna Satyanarayana in Hyderabad,and took Hindusthani lessons in the past(in the north and Chennai),so our family is blessed in terms of  its auditory quality!
