In her book Remembrance, Gurumayi Chidvilasananda reverently calls the full moon of October a “Baba moon,” because it marks the anniversary of Baba Muktananda’s mahasamadhi—or the day he left his physical body. We celebrate the lunar anniversary of Baba’s mahasamadhi this year on October 14th.

The anniversary of Baba's Mahasamadhi is also the anniversary of Gurumayi's installation as the spiritual head and Guru of the Siddha Yoga lineage. This anniversary is welcomed with joy by all those who have had the good fortune to receive Gurumayi’s grace and guidance in their lives. This is also a very beneficial time to take stock of where we each have come in the unfolding of our own sadhana, or spiritual practice.
