The 76th Republic Day was celebrated with great enthusiasm at Amritapuri Ashram. Swami Turiyamritananda Puri Ji hoisted the national flag, marking the moment with love and devotion.
The Kerala Police and the CRPF 221 Battalion, F Company, stationed at the Ashram, rendered a ceremonial salute, adding to the solemnity of the occasion. The event brought together Ashram residents and devotees from various parts of the world, united in their deep love and reverence for Bharat.

As the tricolor waved high, the spirit of unity and the timeless values of this sacred land were felt deeply by all present.
Amma’s words echoed the true essence of the celebration:
“This world and all the creatures in it are merely different forms and expressions of the one Supreme Consciousness. Hence, we should treat every aspect of creation, both sentient and insentient, with love, respect and servitude. This is the vision of this land of Bharat. This is the lofty message Bharat carries to the world.” – Amma

#Amma has always encouraged growing our own food using organic manure, believing it fosters self-reliance and harmony with nature. Inspired by her vision, the Mata Amritanandamayi Math has embraced organic and kitchen farming across India. Ashram residents, volunteers, and devotees work together to cultivate these crops with love and care.

The vegetables and produce grown this way are used to prepare meals for the ashrams, Amrita Hospitals, and other organizations connected to the Math. Here’s a glimpse of the tapioca harvest from Amma’s ashram in Kalady—a reflection of the bountiful yields we see every year.

For over 30 years, the Parayakadav Amrita Seva Sangham and all the Karayogams (the social groups) of Alappad Panchayat have upheld the tradition of offering their respects to Amma on her birthday. This year, the sacred procession once again began at the Pariyakkadav Sree Ponnabhagavathy Temple. The procession reached its blessed moment with the offering of the Purnakumbham to Amma.

This year, the celebrations were marked by a beautiful gesture of bonding and respect, as the girls from the ashram tied Rakhis to 221 Bn CRPF police officers.
