River of love a documentary drama on the life of Ammachi [video recording]

Description: The perennial search for the Divine Mother, the universal symbol manifesting across all realms of Goddess energy, has taken many elusive and unusual paths. Our quest has led us to the state of Kerala in southwestern India into the timeless backwaters of a small fishing village known as Amritapuri, where we have discovered one of the greatest living manifestations of the Divine Mother. MATA AMRITANANDAMAYI DEVI, affectionately called Mother, Amma or Ammachi, is a unique embodiment of love and compassion. She is the revered teacher for millions of people throughout the world, and has dedicated her life to relieving human suffering and bringing love and joy to the world. Ammachi lovingly receives and embraces equally all who come to her, personally counseling and consoling people from all walks of life, healthy and sick, rich and poor, regardless of race, nationality or religion. This film documents Amma's life, mission and work. Her very difficult childhood is portrayed in a vivid re-creation, filmed in her village with local "actors". The viewer is taken on a rich and fantastic journey into the life of one of the most incredible beings of our time -- from box
