NEW PROGRAMS
The Circle of Love
The Circle of Love is a support network designed to serve Amma's
children and their families in need. With love, compassion, and
a smile, volunteers reach out to comfort brothers and sisters who
are elderly, ill, or in need of physical or emotional support. Any
Amma devotee is welcome to call the Circle of Love and request assistance
(cooking, shopping, cleaning, lending an ear) for the duration of
the urgent situation. In addition, devotees may call the ashram
to request prayers for family and loved ones.
The Amma Center initiated the Children's Satsang after consulting
with Amma in Spring 2002. Now, with Amma's Blessing, children meet
in the ashram puja room under the guidance of volunteer teachers
who lead the young ones (ages 5-12) through the 108 names of Amma
(9 names in Sanskrit and English at each session), bhajans, craft
projects, stories, yoga, games, meditation, play practice, and arati.
Older children are invited to assist.
