I did not know Amma before coming here. I came here seven years back. My only source of income is a shop that was setup after I came here. I would say that every day since then is an experience by itself in this sacred land. I feel that only people with the real seed […]

Namah shivaya I  wanted to share with you all an interesting conversation I had with one of our First year ECE students this evening. His name is Anand. Some of you may be able to relate to it. I have heard innumerable such stories over the past 17 years since meeting Amma, but coming from […]

It was barely a year and a half since I first met Amma but it seemed as though I knew her for ages. I was blessed to be with Amma at Bangalore. It was a great pleasure for us, the students of Amrita School of Engineering, Bangalore to volunteer for Amma’s darshan programme and since […]

This happened long back during my School days. I used to compel my friends to come along to meet Amma. Still those memories of, travelling in the boat and reaching ashram and feeling some inner joy, waiting to see her in the hall,not knowing  for what and why? Anyway this is about one of my […]

Every year Amma tops off Her South India tour with the North India tour. Traveling in several buses, She and Her children cut across the great Gangetic plains for nearly two months, giving darshan.  Enroute she passes through the city of Mumbai and every year thousands wait for Her arrival. Before She comes, Swami Amritaswarupanandji […]

25 Mar 2009, Bangalore That was a solemn Shani puja evening in Bangalore. Amma was giving Satsang prior to Puja instructions. The translator was translating, and Amma, having nothing to do, started throwing Her enchanting love glances at the little children in the audience. The front-ramp was tightly occupied by little children and young students […]

I am sure lately more people, especially children, have heard about Bulgaria, particularly thanks to the Harry Potter series. But in general this small European country is not known to many. Having been with Amma for more than ten years, I am pleasantly surprised when I find some of my fellow countrymen in her international […]
