Thiruvananthapuram/Kollam: The 68th birthday of spiritual guru Mata Amritanandamayi Devi, known to her devotees as Amma and most famously referred internationally as “hugging saint,” is being celebrated at Amritapuri Ashram in Karunagappally, Kollam, today.
“The birthday celebrations were restricted due to COVID-19 pandemic. We we will be unable to gather at Amritapuri or other centres. Therefore, we celebrate Amma’s 68th birthday as a day of prayer and selfless service, observing spiritual practices at 6 pm,” Ashram sources said.
