Sri Mata Amritanandamayi Has Captured The Hearts Of Millions Of People All Over The World With Her Unconditional Love And Compassion. This Book Includes Many Of The Earliest Photos Of Her Taken In The 1970'S And Later. Some Of These Photos, Prior To The Publication Of This Book, Have Never Been Viewed Publicly. The Clarity Of Some Photos May Not Rise To Modern Standards, But They Nevertheless Provide A Rare Glimpse Into Amma's Early Days Which We Wish To Make Available For The Benefit Of Her Admirers. Published By The Disciples Of Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, Affectionately Known As Mother, Or Amma The Hugging Saint.
