Meditation<\/span>

In 2004 she began attending meditation meetings in Assisi led by Father Anthony Elenjimittam, a pupil of Mahatma Gandhi and founder of the Sat Cit Ananda centre. Father left the body on 5 October 2011 and Carla thanks him from the bottom of her heart for all the love, coherence, poetry and passion he transmitted in his teachings.
