AMMA!

Jane Goodall called Amma "universal love in a human body." The amount of charitable work she and her devotees do is mind-boggling. She feeds a quarter of a million people every month. She has built over 30,000 homes for the homeless. She spent over 40 million for those affected by the tsunami. She has build schools and universities, trains the poor in various trades. She give free sewing machines to village women. One of her organisations plants 100,000 saplings a year. She has built and runs hospitals, nursing homes for the elderly, and orphanages. She gave one million to the victims of Hurrican Katrina. And she does all this while running her various centers around the world, and hugging literally thousands of people everyday. She only sleeps 1-2 hours a night, if at all. She said that her life is an offering to the world. She is undoubtedly a living saint, and if you have a chance to see her, don't pass it up. Jai Ma!
