She is a widely respected humanitarian and called by some 'the Hugging Saint.'
Amritanandamayi was born in a poor fishing village in Kerala, Southern India, in 1953. Her father was a fisherman. She was given the name Sudhamani (Ambrosial Jewel). As she grew, her divine moods, including frequent meditative states, singing, and ecstatic dancing beside the seashore, began to annoy her family. At the early age of her life she was already subjected to severe scoldings.
She would share her food with the starving, she was punished when she gave away the family's food and belongings to the poor, but would not stop her acts of kindness.
Amritanandamayi has recorded more than 1,000 devotional songs, in more than 35 languages. She has also composed many bhajans and set them to traditional ragas. Regarding devotional singing as a spiritual discipline, Amritanandamayi says, "If the bhajan is sung with one-pointedness, it is beneficial for the singer, the listeners, and Nature as well. Later when the listeners reflect on the songs, they will try to live in accordance with the lessons enunciated therein." Amritanandamayi has said that in today's world, it is often difficult for people to attain deeply focused concentration in meditation. A person can be aided in reaching this level of concentration with bhajans.
