A priceless return gift
‘Its such an auspicious day’…. is what I thought of when I opened my eyes on the morning of 27th September 2011. I scrabbled for my Amma’s photo on my table next to my bed and wished her a Happy Birthday with a birthday kiss and a big hug… tears welled up in my heart

Dream and Reality
Do you believe in the realisation of dreams? Does a dream ever come true? Have you ever met a stranger who appeared in your dreams?

Silent reassurance

Amma with anyone who is in need
Ms.Vijayalakshmi, Principal of Amrita Vidyalayam, Kochi has been a follower of Amma for the past 18 years.
