Is there a puppeteer?

We all know that Amma the mother of millions rushed to help the tsunami victims in 2004. She pledged what? 18? 36? Maybe 43? Nevermind. She pledged plenty of millions of dollars to feed people, rebuild houses, grant healthcares... We feel like exclaiming "How Compassionate"! Then we have recently found some pieces of information that make us want to also shout "Such hypocrisy"!

French psychoanalysis for downloading

The french psychiatrist and spiritual seeker Jacques Vigne has scrutinized the book "Holly Hell" by Gail Tredwell as well as Sudhamani Idamanel's personal history, in order to have a better understanding of the current issues.

Is Home Ministry part of the evil plot against Amma®?

We debate a lot about the now famous FCRA. Their is something weird in the way that Amma® declares her foreign incomes and their use. But in face of our nasty attacks, she claims that her account books are neat and clean.

Amma said : "Don't pay your bills"

At least that is what she seems to teach us when we try to translate her actions into words.

Fanciful FCRA

Some of our posts deal with the Foreign Contribution Regulation Act (FCRA). Each year Indian NGOs must declare to the government the funds that they got from foreign countries. Being strongly connected to Western countries, the M.A. Math cannot escape the rule. The accounts given by Amritapuri are available online.
Some devotees of the "Thugging Saint" pretend that we are misunderstanding the numbers, so let's take a closer look at them.

Proud to be an Indian?

If you are between 15 and 30 years old, if in addition you are proud to be an Indian then Amritanandamayi has something special for you.

Why is she awarded by RSS?

Her devotees claim that she has no political connection. They say that all kinds of politicians come to see her because they are passionate spiritual seekers :-) looking for spiritual guidance ;-))

Compassionate schools

Amritanadamayi has build 49 Amrita Vidyayalam schools and 9 Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham so far. How does her compassion come in action inside her blessed institutions?

Do students have mediawork instead of homework?

Her facebook finally ranks beyond the 1% threshold. More than 1% of the more than 30 millions of people that she supposedly hugged, like her in return in social media. Who are they?

Brainwahsing for dummies

Cults often use brainwashing to manipulate their devotees. Is the M.A. Math a mind-controlling cult?

Profile of a perfect faithful devotee

People who have never been involved in a cult ofen ask the same question : "How could you join in such a delusional group?". It is true that it requires some peculiar mindsets to give up on common sense and embrace nonsensical beliefs. It is very hard to explain but thanks to Vian Charbonneau's letter to the mother, we can illustrate at least one of the many profiles of the perfect "faithful devotee".

Amma!!! Your beloved daughter apologizes!

A new letter is available online to support the "Mother of Compassion". Vian charbonneau, who claims to be the moderator of the ex-amma yahoo group, has posted a long confession to say how sorry she was for having said awfull things about Amritanandamayi. What actually happened?

Rescued by an internet terrorist?

In 2007(?) a group of ex-devotees began to criticize Amritanandamayi. Their blog's was called Cult of the hugging saint. They have been attacked so violently that they had to give up. What happened?

I won't come but vote for me (pls)!

Postponed? Canceled? No program was held so far in Malaysia and Singapore. But the "Mother of Compassion" knows how to comfort her beloved children.

Is rape sometimes right?

Madhya Pradesh Home Minister Babulal Gaur, who is from BJP and part of the brand new Indian goverment, has raised a violent controversy with his scandalous statement about rape : "Sometimes it's right, sometimes it's wrong"!

For immediate release in the USA

The Facebook page Guruphiliac which aims at warning against the many spiritual fraudsters of this modern world has published a media release to expose Amritanandamayi's controversial issue. Feel free to forward it to your local media outlet as her 2014 US tour seems to be less glorious than the ones that she used to make before. Here is a full copy of this release :

Vain support and vain silence?

The Amritanandamayi issue bursted just a few month before the Indian general election of 2014. The left parties leaders chose to remain silent, supposedly by fear of the devotees wrath which could deprive them from precious votes. The right parties used this controversy to demonstrate their concern for Hinduism, hoping to seduce her devotees and get their votes. Silence competed against Support. And the winner is...?

Thank you violence

A recent rumor says that "the issue around Mata Amritanandamayi had almost died down". How come? Who or what to thank for that?

AEPL is a spiritual octopus

Here comes a new episode in the AEPL saga. Our favorite business sitcom began when we put online a post dealing with the blur connections between Amrita Enterprise Private Limited and the Mata Amritanandamayi Math.

The other books

Since November 2014 devotees and ex-devotees of Amritanandamayi focus on Holy Hell. It is important to read the testimonial of the one who has been the closest assistant of the guru for 20 years to make up one's mind, but we can also consider the other publications to gain a wider view over the issue.
