Four service initiatives in honour of Amma's 73rd birthday. Swami Amritaswarupananda Puri wrote to all of Amma's ashrams and satsangs:
"On 27 September, 2026, we will gather at Amritapuri to celebrate Amma's 73rd birthday. Yet Amma's own wish is that this day be remembered not for its festivity alone. What brings her the deepest joy is to see her children reach out to those who are suffering, the poor, the forgotten, the ones waiting for a kind hand. In this spirit, we have named this year's celebration Vishwa Seva Dinam — 'A Day of Selfless Service.' Let us offer Amma the gift she truly treasures, and let our hands become an extension of her compassion in the world."
In this spirit, Amma's Toronto satsang is organizing four service initiatives around the weekend of September 25–27:
- September 25–26: preparing and serving chilli at a local food bank
- September 26:Farm Harvest Day — harvesting fruit and vegetables at Amma Canada Farms and delivering the produce to food banks across the GTA
- September 26 – October 4:Food Drive — bring non-perishable food to the Amma Canada Centre
- September 27:Litter clean-up with AYUDH Toronto at The Urban Litter Challenge's clean-up of AE Crookes Park in Mississauga
You are most welcome to join any or all of these events. For more information, email ammatoronto@ammagroups.org. Thank you for making Amma's birthday wish come true!
