Amma in Asheville 2026

We are so honored to receive Her Holiness Amma Sri Karunamayi here in Asheville for the first time. This is a very auspicious opportunity for each person to share a one-on-one meeting with Amma and convey any specific questions or blessing requests to her.

Receive Darshan - Saturday

May 23rd Darshan Program - FREE EVENT

Individual Blessings are a chance for families to come before Amma to receive her gift of profound love and spiritual energy. Amma considers all of creation as her own family, and all beings as her very own children. This divine motherly love inspires Amma to give of herself one-on-one, and to tune in directly to the specific needs and requests her children bring her. For many people the Individual Blessing is an encounter with the Divine in the form of a human being – a saint, a teacher, a spiritual guide, a loving mother. Great peace and inner silence comes easily in the presence of our beloved Amma.
