Humanitarian Activities
" As a child, I always wanted to know the
cause of misery of mankind and thought that if sorrow is
a truth, then there must be a cause and a way out." Amma explains.
" I realize my purpose is to console - to personally wipe
away tears through selfless love, compassion, and service." - Amma
Amma has inspired innumerable humanitarian activities all over
the world. Some of them are free food and clothing programs, charitable
hospitals, hospices, disaster relief programs, free homes for the
poor and the needy, medical camps, orphanage, schools, educational
institutions, widows' pension scheme, free legal advice, preservation
of nature and so on. The list is long and growing everyday.
Amma says, " Compassion to the poor and the needy is our duty
to God." Through the example of her own life Amma has inspired
people from all over the world to walk in the path of selfless-service
and compassion towards all beings.
