Swami Purnamritananda Puri is the General Secretary, Mata Amritanandamayi Math. One of the earliest disciples of Amma, he was fortunate to have met Amma while still a science student. The seeker who set out to probe the mysteries of creation found himself in the presence of the Guru. Research on the light giver of the solar system saw him face to face with the Effulgence that illumines the infinite cosmos. This book is a captivating account of the journey of a researcher with the solar radiation department of the Raman Research Institute, Bangalore, to Amma, the embodiment of Spiritual Glory.
Around the world Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, popularly known as Amma, is hailed as an educator, humanitarian and spiritual leader. Through her simple and practical teachings, Amma has inspired countless lives to devote themselves to serving the less fortunate. In this extraordinary biography, one of Amma’s closest disciples tells the story of how a village girl evolved into a spiritual teacher with an international network of charitable activities. This is a powerful and moving introduction to Amma for those who don’t know her and a deepening experience for those who do.
This book contains a collection of speeches that Amma gave in India between 1990 and 1999. As Amma reveals the truths of life in the light of spirituality and in a manner unassailable by logic, the reader is given not only a fresh view of life but is inspired to live according to the universal principles that Amma explains in such a crystal clear way. Like a mother talking to her child, Amma brings profound principles to light through the simplest of words. In this book, we are given compelling answers to the numerous questions that most of us have asked or have wanted to ask at one time or another.
Question: What is the foundation of spirituality? Amma: My dear children, the foundation of spirituality is not blind faith, as some may believe. It is a deep inquiry, an intense exploration within one’s own self. Spirituality is about seeking the truth, and the truth can only be discovered through direct experience, through one’s own efforts and practice.
Question: Amma, can you tell us more about how we can seek the truth within? Amma: The key is to cultivate a sincere and pure heart, to be open to new ideas and experiences, and to be willing to question everything, including your own beliefs and assumptions. Dear children, practice meditation and self-reflection, and seek guidance from those who have walked the path before you. But ultimately, the truth can only be discovered through your own experience.
“Even greater a miracle than lifting a mountain,” says Amma, “is the love the gopis had for Lord Krishna.” How did the gopis develop this love? What is it that bound their hearts and minds unconditionally to the divine? Similar is the case with Amma’s children.
Infinite are the forms that Amma has taken to awaken divine love in our hearts that triumphs all sorrows. In every encounter Amma reveals that even if we may physically be apart, her embrace is eternal.
These testimonies by Amma’s children from all corners of the world give us a glimpse of the depth of Amma’s compassion that transcends all natural and manmade limitations. They echo the immutable truth of Amma’s promise to all: “Amma is always with you.”
“Spirituality is the science that teaches us how to live happily in the world,” Amma says, and these recollections of devotees’ experiences reveal how Amma has guided them to uncover this secret knowledge that lies dormant in our hearts.
Amma’s every glance, every touch, every word, literally every thought arising from her presence reveals an intimacy with her that transcends the limitations of time and space. It is through this deep connection that Amma guides us out of the mire of worldliness and into the realm of overflowing love.
Having been touched by Amma’s love, the soul yearns for an ever-expanding heart, just as a tree reaches for the sky — and suddenly we realize that our lives have been transformed. Evolving through selfless action and contemplation, Amma’s children awaken to their mother’s call: “Amma bows down to all of you, who are embodiments of pure
love and the supreme self.”
In the face of disasters, the interplay between humanity and nature shapes community resilience. The 2004 Indian Ocean Tsunami, a devastating event, serves as a testament to human endurance. This true story focuses on Alappad Village, the birthplace of Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi (Amma), and her compassionate response during the disaster. Amma’s unprecedented approaches to disaster management led the village from devastation to prosperity, offering lessons in unity, courage, and preparedness. The book highlights Amma’s role in rescue efforts and serves as a guide for building resilient communities. May Amma’s teachings inspire a more compassionate and resilient world for generations to come.
“Whether we laugh or cry, days will pass by. So why not choose to laugh?” Amma says, “Happiness is a decision.” Many of Amma’s children have faced tremendous hardships in both material as well as spiritual life. This teaching of Amma’s may be one of the most profound and at the same time one of the most difficult to accept. Is happiness really a choice?
This book contains the transformational journeys of twenty-five of Amma’s children. Every story is real. Every child is unique. So many struggled hard to open up to receive Amma’s pure and selfless love. Yet somehow an inner transformation started the moment Amma touched their lives, and each person in their own time eventually became receptive to her love and grace.
Accepting Amma’s love and grace is always a turning point in everyone’s life. As we read these chronicles that her devotees have offered in love, it removes any doubts that we too can grow into a life filled with love. Therefore let’s laugh with enthusiasm and follow Amma’s loving clarion call: “My children, happiness is a decision.
One who has attained real control over the mind will be able to maintain equanimity in any situation. This is true victory.” Amma
Amma Says, through the pursuit of inner mastery, one can achieve a remarkable state of equanimity in any circumstance. This state represents a profound victory, as it entails understand-ing the mind and the world as mere waves within the vast ocean of consciousness—a wave formed and sustained by conscious-ness itself, much like a clay pot shaped from and filled with mud. The world, in all its aspects of creation, sustenance, and destruction, is seen as an emanation of Satchidananda.
From this state of inner grandeur, Amma has lived her life touching countless beings, healing their hearts and awakening in them the seeds of love and compassion, to be shared with all. Her only intention is to uplift all her children to the state of inner freedom – where one knows they are one with the Universal Self.
In this book, we seek to offer 70 quotes from Amma, chosen from the vast ocean of her timeless teachings. Relevant verses from the Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita are added, along with memorable stories, to help us reflect and meditate on Amma’s words.
Advaita Vedānta is the heart of Indian spirituality—a vision wherein the seemingly distinct entities of the individual soul, the cosmos and the Creator are revealed to, in truth, be of one and the same eternal essence. Sadguru Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, Amma has dedicated her life to uplifting spiritual seekers to this exalted spiritual vision, the attainment of which is the ultimate goal of human life. However, Amma’s conviction is that Advaita is not for mere discussion. Advaita’s value truly manifests only when it is lived when its truth constantly reflects in one’s thoughts, words and deeds in the form of self-sacrifice, compassion and mental equanimity.
In Living Vedānta: Amma and Advaita, Swami Ramakrishnananda presents a basic overview of Advaita Vedānta as taught by Amma and the core scriptures of Indian spirituality. Using examples from Amma’s life and teachings, Swamiji goes to the heart of the Advaita tradition, helping the reader gain a better understanding of the Vedānta worldview as well as revealing what is really meant by “Living Vedānta.”
This book contains a collection of speeches that Amma gave in India between 1990 and 1999. As Amma reveals the truths of life in the light of spirituality and in a manner unassailable by logic, the reader is given not only a fresh view of life but is inspired to live according to the universal principles that Amma explains in such a crystal clear way. Like a mother talking to her child, Amma brings profound principles to light through the simplest of words. In this book, we are given compelling answers to the numerous questions that most of us have asked or have wanted to ask at one time or another.
Is a rare and revealing account of a young Westerner’s thirty-two year heartfelt spiritual journey in modern India. Told with innocence, wry humor and genuine insight, this unusual story narrates the archetypal quest for spiritual realization, the trials of personal transformation, and life under the guidance of one of India’s greatest contemporary Masters, Ammachi (Matamritanandamayi).
This book takes up the thread where volume one left off, and will illumine and inspire seekers to deepen their commitment to the values of love, wisdom and selfless service to humanity. See completetradesman for more info.
