Her Divine Form
Her lap we look for to rest, Her divine and soothing words we seek in moments of distress and sorrows, In Her sparkling eyes our eyes search for answers to the questions of life, She is none other than Devi, the embodiment of compassion! None of our words are enough to describe Her beauty and Her magnificence, Millions of devotees come in flock to Her to be hugged, Following only a few seconds of Darshan, So many changes brought to their lives and so many miracles! Yet She remains humble and keeps the innocence of a child. Her life, a…

Sleepless in Seattle
We were “Sleepless in Seattle,” but not like the popular film of the ‘90’s by that name. We were mostly “sleepless” with Amma in Seattle as she launched the 2012 North American Tour- the commencement of 7 weeks of a grand celebration and spiritual festival. The program was located at the Bellevue Hyatt Regency, a comfortable and spacious venue in the heart of Seattle techie land. Right across the street, Microsoft was also in the process of launching its new Windows program, but as far reaching as Microsoft’s influence may be, could it hold a candle to the “program” that…

The Bonding of Her Love
Every syllable sleeps in her. Every language flowers in her. Every music tunes live in her. As a prayer she lives in world. When she speaks the world listens. When she sings it gets into trance. Her actions speak her freedom. Her freedom is her fearlessness. When she falls into silence, still we can hear her talk, louder than loudest. A unique syllable that resonates, between life and death! Universe wakes up by her chant. As a song, as a tune, as a trumpet, Amma rises East, West, South and North, makes a clarion call of love, embraces each soul…

Shaken by Love, not by earthquake
29 May 2012, Tokyo, Japan On the first day of Amma’s Tokyo program (May 27th), the crowd was bigger than in the past. Amma sang ‘Bandalo Bandalo’ bhajan at the end of the first day program and she requested every one to do the patty cake. The Japanese people generally are very quiet and humble. I think, they are not allowed to express their emotions publicly in their culture. But when Amma started singing and clapping to the ‘Bandalo Bandalo’ bhajan, even the Japanese people could not hide or control their emotions. They were laughing and clapping with great joy…

Amma, the Sculptress
By mere look; she coveys lot A smile, a hug, a sweet murmur, A soft touch; melts stone hearted. Suddenly rock wakes up into life, breathes air that she had infused. A disciple is sanctified by the fire, she kindled in their hearth of hearts. By chisel of compassion she shapes, in tune, Chips away bits and pieces. Suddenly she unveils her creation, turning one into an idol of her ideals. Sculpts a complete being strongly soft, A divine sculpture in spiritual aesthetics! by Satheesan Rangorath

Amma, where are you?
I tried to find solace in this materialistic world For so long, I forgot the true nature of this self, Until the day where I got exhausted, finding nothing which could give me happiness. That day Divine Mother, You came as a beam of light You took me in Your arms and hugged me “Daughter, Amma is always with you, seek within and not without” is what You told me, I closed my eyes and saw Your resplendent form, With both Your arms stretched out to me, you called me, You put me on Your lap, showed me the way.…
