Mata Amritanandamayi, also known as Amma
Mata Amritanandamayi is known throughout the world as Amma, or Mother, for her selfless love and compassion toward all beings. Her entire life has been dedicated to alleviating the pain of the poor, and those suffering physically and emotionally.
Throughout her life, Mata Amritanandamayi has embraced and comforted more than 40 million people. Amma inspires, uplifts, and transforms through her embrace, her spiritual wisdom and through her global charities, known as Embracing the World.® When asked where she gets the energy to help so many people, she answers: "Where there is true love, anything is effortless."
While Amma is widely regarded as one of India’s foremost spiritual leaders, Amma says that her religion is love. She has never asked anyone to change their religion but only to contemplate the essential principles of their own faith and to try to live accordingly.
Hands in the Soil, Hearts in the Mission: Amrita Farms blossomed with life and community spirit as over 85 volunteers gathered to plant 108 apple trees in a heartfelt effort to honor and nurture Mother Nature.
The Silent Retreat with Swami Dayamritananda Puri and Swamini Ambikamrita Prana was deeply nourishing. Participants shared that they found much-needed inner peace, with the serene atmosphere and sacred silence enriched by prayers, Q&A sessions, and a wholesome vegetarian meal.
Whether it's picking up litter along the Mississippi River or engaging in conversations about sustainability with fellow participants, each interaction during the Earth Day Cleanup reaffirms our core values—community, compassion, and conservation.
