The Baijis

We’re lucky to have two wonderful baijis (nuns) running the Ashram. They are more spiritual than religious, and they welcome anyone’s input that is positive and empowering. They believe a good idea can come from anywhere.

They wear the saffron robes of those who have renounced the material life and are devoted to service to others. I am very humbled by that distinction, which ironically makes we want to do anything for them.

They are also Mahatmas, which are defined as people who are held in the highest esteem for wisdom and saintliness. I’m still learning how profound this is, and I feel privileged to be in their company.

They’re also a lot of fun. More on that later.
