Herd Members

Jingle Baba:  Jingle Baba was the original camel of our herd. He was massive, about 3000 pounds in his prime. Powerful, gentle, wise and full of class. His close relationship to Adi Da Samraj gave birth to the Sacred Camel Gardens. Jingle Baba passed away in 2004, leaving a line of younger camels to carry forward his example of benevolence.

 

 

Google Mama: As overall herd leader Google Mama is a benign, steady, presence from whom the herd draws its spiritual guidance and balance. She is firm yet kind. Commanding respect, Google Mama demonstrates true leadership and the importance of positive hierarchy within the sacred herd culture. Adi Da named Google Mama in July 1998, because of her “googly” eyes at the time.

 

 

Peaceful Baba:  Peaceful is Google Mama’s oldest son. He is the herd caretaker. When the youngsters get out of line Peaceful is there to restore order. When new people arrive Peaceful is often the first to greet them and investigate. He is the herd peace-maker and protector. Peaceful Baba was given his name by Adi Da on April 12, 2001.

 

Barack O’Mama:  Her name is a humorous play on the US President, and the Irish. Barack almost didn’t make it into this world. Her first couple of days were tentative. When she finally did arrive she brought much gusto and confidence with her. She loves people and wants to be involved and to participate in things. Barack is Google Mama’s daughter.

 

Jelly Baba:  Of all Jingle Baba’s progeny, Jelly Baba, his youngest, was the most like him. Jelly was large and dark, kind and powerful, yielding and serious, though not without a sense of play. As a young baby he was often seen sitting face to face with his father receiving, it seemed, all his father could give him before he soon passed. Jelly was a natural leader. An inspiring camel, and  person. Jelly Baba passed away in August of 2010. To read more about this please click here…

 

Muffin:  Muffin is an all round good camel. She might just be the sweetest, most straightforward and well intentioned camel in the herd.

 

 

 

 

Everest: Son of famous stud bull, Tom Dooley (resident in Montana), Everest is a large white bull of handsome proportions. Still young, and learning the responsibilities of being the bull of a herd. A powerful young camel to be respected. And one who gives much respect in return.

 

 

 

Purnimama: Purni is Google Mama’s first daughter. A mother herself, she is sweet, shy and good company to all.

 

 

 

 

 

Not-Two Mama: Not-Two is Purnimama’s daughter. She was tiny for a long while but has since grown considerably. She is one of the herd’s odd-ball characters. Not-Two Mama received her name because she was third-born that year, not second-born. Her name is also a reference to Adi Da’s book, “Not-Two Is Peace”.

 

Green Smoothy: When Smoothy was born Adi Da gave her the “green” name because her parents (Muffin and Jelly Baba) both have “junk food” names. Green Smoothy is vibrantly healthy, sharp and very quick.

 

 

Jelly Bean Bean:  As of September 2011 Jelly Bean is about 7 months of age. Born to Green Smoothy and Jelly Baba, she is Jelly’s last offspring, sired before he passed away. Jelly Bean is completely at home with people, self-assured and confident. We’re looking forward to seeing how she matures…

 

 

Dalaney:  Dalaney is a very interesting camel; delicate, strong, complex, introspective and serious. She is no push-over. When she lets you in, however, you know you’ve received a gift worth waiting for.

 

 

 

 

Tilly:  Tall and white, Tilly is a large, beautiful, camel. Sometimes shy. Sometimes bold. Often scruffy… Tilly loves contact, brushing, grooming, and is always up for it…

 

 

HiHo: A character. Mischief-maker. Trickster. Someone to always keep an eye on. His playful inquisitiveness is always getting him, and us, into trouble. He’s always taking us to our limits and teaching us more about ourselves. A gelding, he’s relatively small. Vocal. Has a pronounced creative streak. Loves people.

 

 

Stuart Camps:  Stuart has been serving the Sacred Camels and Fear-No-More Zoo for the past 18 years. From Papua New Guinea and Australia he grew up around many animals. Stuart has a deep love and respect for the camels and, when you visit, will guide you into an understanding of who they are and how to gently connect with them in ways that, hopefully, will continue deepening long after.
