“She doesn’t fear anything. Rabid dogs sit next to her and calm down.” Indian Guru Seeks to Love the World Personally:

“From dawn to late at night people stream toward her.

One-by-one they place their heads on her breast or belly or shoulder for a hug. She pats them on

the back, chucks their chins, listens to their woes, smoothes their hair, smiles broadly and whispers

heartfelt blessings into their ears, sometimes drying their tears.

Rapidly growing in popularity and a sought-after guest, Amma, 46, goes where she is summoned

and does not publicize her visits. She stays where people offer lodging, asks for nothing, eats little

and spends up to 18 hours a day — rarely moving from her seat — hugging, praying for, and

blessing anybody and everybody who comes to her.” Reuters [via Robot Wisdom]
