 “For the past 30 years Amma has dedicated her life to the uplifting of suffering humanity through the simplest of gestures
– an embrace. In this intimate manner Amma had blessed and consoled more than 21 million people throughout the world…As Dr. Jane Goodall, while presenting Amma
with the 2002 Gandhi-King Award for Non-violence said, " She stands here in front of us. God's love in a human body." Source:

"If there were a world record for hugs, it would surely go to Mata
Amritanandamayi, a small, dark Indian women with a radiant smile. Better known
as 'Amma' (Mother), She has devoted her life to bringing good feelings to
people, mainly through hugs.
