"Sexual assault is part of the healing process"

This story is disgusting. Devotees blinded by denial will call it karma that gross minded people cannot understand. Sane people will call it a crime. It's the story of Adhyatma Adhyatma Amithananda, one of the very first disciples, part of Amma's inner circle. Back in the eighties his name was Chandru.

Women disempowerment

For many years Mata Amritanandamayi has claimed to be the champion of women empowerment. Why ruining her PR so openly?

Professor Tamsin Bradley's point of view

Mata Amritanandamayi is proud to display her "Scientific Hall of Fame". Indeed many Indian and foreign researchers are lauding her international efforts in improving the world. But some of them have a different point of view and she won't ever mention them.

Festival of cruelty

Amma displays impressive compassion daily. We would like to know what unfolds behind the curtain. Sometimes we stumble across clues that can offer a glimpse into the dark side, stories of treason

Circling down the drain?

Mata Amritanandamayi is always looking forward to help in any way. In a great action of compassion she has decided to give several millions of dollars to the Indian governement. What for?

The genesis of the end-slavery religious summit

Amma has signed the contract. She will commit to help ending slavery by 2020. By the way who had the idea of organizing such a summit? Surprisingly, religion had nothing to do with it, at least at the begining.

Join us to end modern slavery!

For once, we feel like applauding the Sri Mata Amritanandamayi. Indeed, World Faith Leaders have Declared Their Commitment Towards the Eradication of Modern Slavery by 2020. Her Holiness Mata Amritanandamayi will join in this beautiful project in the name the Hindu religion.

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"!

She was not invited!

In face of spontaneous popular protest through social media, there are only official speeches and planned gatherings originating from political and religious institutions. The latest manifestation of this kind was Dharma Raksha Samgam, a Hindu community unite to pledge to protect Dharma under under a single flag.

Adharmic charity

An article published on ammascandal gives us surprising details about a charitable project. If the article changes in the next few days we will provide a backup.

ETW IV : Real life

The acronym ETW has several meanings. It can stand for "Embracing The World" or "Embezzling The World". In this post, it stands for "Empowering The Women".
