Welcome to M.A. Center PNW, Seattle
M.A. Center PNW is situated in the Greenwood neighborhood of Seattle, Washington. Inaugurated in May 2024, the property features a temple and a functioning home. The center is a base for satsang members of the greater Seattle area who are inspired by Amma (Mata Amritanandamayi) and her spiritual teachings, environmental initiatives, and humanitarian efforts. Throughout the year, a variety of programs and events are hosted, fostering an active and diverse community.
About Our Community
The community gathers Sunday afternoons for satsang, which includes chanting, meditation, readings from Amma’s teachings, bhajans (devotional singing), and the offering of the arati flame. After satsang, members share prayer requests, announcements of group activities, and conversation.
The Pacific Northwest has many surrounding satsang communities, which use this center as a hub for connection — regularly traveling to Seattle to take part in special events and programs, fostering a sense of unity within the larger regional family. Senior disciples of Amma are frequently invited to the center to lead special satsang programs.
Get Involved
Weekly satsang is a great way to connect with local community members and learn about upcoming events. Our satsang is committed to serving the community, with members taking part in Mother’s Kitchen, GreenFriends, and the Pacific Northwest Litter Project. Meditation is integral to our practice, with regular Integrated Amrita Meditation (IAM) courses and group sessions throughout the year, and we celebrate cultural holidays with special satsangs for festivals such as Shivaratri, Amma’s birthday, Navratri, Christmas, and New Year’s Eve.
