To our family of selfless service volunteers in North America,
Our precious and revered Ron Gottsegen has passed from his earthly existence in Amritapuri, India. He passed away on the morning of Friday, October 7th (IST). We are overcome with gratitude for all the decades we have been inspired by and benefitted from Ronji's presence, even as our hearts are filled with a sense of great loss.
His example of true selfless service, unwavering dedication, humility, perseverance, and profound love for Amma's philosophy of love and service will shine as a brilliant beacon for us as we travel our paths.
Ronji had been instrumental in establishing Amma's ashrams in North America, beginning with MA Center, San Ramon, California, where he spent his first couple of decades after meeting Amma. He served in several impactful and crucial administrative roles, including as President of the Board of MA Centers and Administrative Head of the Amrita Institute of Medical Sciences, Kochi.
With prayers,
Om. Peace. Peace. Peace.
