Review for Mata Amritanandamayi Math, Kerala, , India

Rating: 5 stars  

I have been affiliated with this organization for over 16 years. I have never come across an organization ever, that is built so strongly on the principles of love and compassion. There are two kinds of volunteers affiliated with this non profit. One set of people have given up a life of comfort and luxury to live a very simple life, in order to be able to provide a moments solace for the poor and suffering. They live 24 x 7 with the sole aim of providing such support. The other group of people are people like you and me, who hold full-time jobs in reputed organizations, but still spend a good chunk of time working towards the same goal. Our inspiration is none other than the founder of this organization, Her Holiness Sri Sri Mata Amritanandamyi Devi herself, loving known as Amma, who works tireless Herself for the upliftment of mankind. I have seen this organization grow from a simple spiritual organization to this massive charitable organization as it stands today. Welfare of mankind has been the prime motive behind every institution this organization has ever spawned be it an educational institution, reforestation program, pension schemes, hospices,super speciality hospital, anything for that matter. I fall short of words to clearly communicate what this organization stands for, but you can see for yourself at http://embracingtheworld.org/.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

my life.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

the principles behind the organization and the sincerity and selflessness with which people strive to upkeep those principles.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

build thousands of homes for people below poverty life, assist the millions of farmers in India who commit suicide owing to the huge loans (as per the statistics about 8 farmers commit suicide a day), start more outreach centers e.t.c.

How frequently have you been involved with the organization?

About every week
