Ammah, as she is popularly known, is committed to demonstrating love and compassion for the poor and teaches that spirituality is the science and art of harmonious living. She is reported to have hugged over 20 million people worldwide since 1975 and has established orphanages for 600 children, a hospice centre, a home for battered women, a hospital providing free treatment for the poor and 19 schools and colleges. It is said that when Ammah embraces someone, it is a process of purification and inner healing. Ammah, who is from Kerala, India, served as one of the three Hindu "presidents," or principle representatives, of the Centenary Parliament of World Religions in Chicago in 1993 and was a speaker at the United Nations Millenium Peace Summit in August, 2000. Amma will offer darshan (blessings) via her hugs and will hold a spiritual discourse and meditation at Dewan Wawasan, Level 4 Menara PGRM, Parti Gerakan Rakyat Malaysia, No 8 Jalan Pudu Ulu, Cheras, Kuala Lumpur from 7.30 pm onwards on Monday.
