Program Guide

"While Amma gives her love without asking for anything in return, the programs are made possible by funds raised through a variety of sources. One of these is through ads placed in the Program Guide and other fundraiser events.

The Program Guide is given free to all attendees and provides informative information about Amma and Her worldwide humanitarian and charitable activities, program schedules and local satsang information.

Thousands of people will attend the programs and this is a great way to spread the word about your business or practice and support a worthy cause at the same time.

If you or someone you know has a business and would like to place an ad, or if you would like to send a message to Amma, please click here for more information....


Gems to treasure
Nature

Amma: Everything in Nature has a purpose to fulfil. There are no mistakes in God's creation. Every creature and every object that has been created by God is so utterly special. How can anyone who understands this want to kill or destroy?
