Amma or Mother is known
for her selfless compassion towards all beings. Her entire life has been
dedicated to alleviating the pain of the poor and those suffering physically
and emotionally. Amma has hugged more than 33 million people and says,
"Only when we show compassion to others will divine grace flow into
us."

Devi Bhava is a special program that begins with the Atma

ceremony for world peace.

Afterwards, Amma will receive guests who have tokens for an embrace, which
lasts all night into the next morning. Many stay the entire time to be in the
uplifting atmosphere and to enjoy the devotional singing. Numbered Tokens For Individual Blessings Are
Distributed 90 Minutes Before Programs Begin. Tokens Are Limited By Time
