Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India
Amma is the greatest humanitarian of our times. This petite lady with her boundless love and selfless service has touched the hearts of millions of people across the globe from all walks of life. She came into my life in the year 2000 and has changed my whole attitude towards all those that are less fortunate than I am. Amma’s work speaks for itself. Here is a lady who comes from a small fishing community with very little education that has accomplished more in twenty years than many rich philanthropists and governments with a lot of resources have accomplished in many more years. I personally am involved with the Amrita Kuteeram -the charity started by Amma for helping provide homes and a livelihood for destitute women. Our Center in San Ramon has bake sales every week, the proceeds of which go towards this cause. Amma is a true living example of this famous quote by Mahatma Gandhi –“You must be the change you wish to see in the world.”
