On the night of December 23, 1995, at the Mountain Of Attention Sanctuary, in Great Food Dish (the primary kitchen facility on the Sanctuary, formerly known as "First People"), Adi Da Samraj made cookie portraits of devotees with Him in the kitchen. He was accompanied by more devotees singing holiday songs and playing instruments just outside the kitchen window next to Him. The Guru gave loving and humorous instructions to His devotees, inside and outside the kitchen, all night long. Here is just a taste. . .

Marie relayed the Guru's instructions to the keyboardist (me), who happily agreed to let Marie pour vodka down his throat while he continued playing carols.

Five minutes later. . .

Here's an excerpt from a video of the occasion. You can hear the choir singing AFTER I had vodka poured down my throat. (That's my head in the lower right of the choir scene, as I play the keyboard.) And you can hear Beloved Adi Da singing a few notes Himself, and going to the window to check out His choir again.
