Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India
For the last 10 years I have volunteered the Mata Amritandamayi Math during their North American tour. I have traveled all over the country working in the kitchen preparing food for the large number of people (up to 8000) who come to see Amma. Every year I am impressed by the comittment and intensity shown by Amma toward a hugh range of people that are on the edge either physically or emotionally. The integrity of the fund dispersement, the unlimited compassion and the other volunteers committment is heartening. Even when there is not enough money (and there never is to help everyone) Amma still has the unlimited compassion to comfort EVERYONE who comes to her. Phenomenal in todays world. Whether it is a fire in the kitchen, a tsunami in Asia, earthquakes in India, children of farmers who commit suicide or an individual who is having a miscarriage, Amma is always there. It is been the greatest grace to be able to volunteer for the MA Math. Thank you
