Helping Nagapattinam to Overcome

20 December 2005 —"When difficult circumstances arise in life, there are two ways to respond. We can either run away in fear or kindle the love within and try to overcome," Amma said. She was talking to the 60,000 people or so who'd come to have her darshan in Samanthampettai, a small village in Tamil Nadu's Nagapattinam District. Considering the crowd it was a pretty heavy statement. A year ago when the tsunami hit India, Nagapattinam became an international household name—8,000 dead.

Tonight, the Ashram officially handed over certificates to the 375 homes it has completed in Nagapattinam thus far: 340 in Samanthampettai, 25 in Akkaraipettai and 10 in Pandagasali.
