Named Person: Shree Anandamayee Ma : Sri Anandamayi Ma .

Description: There is no question that Anandamayi Ma is a spiritual giant who rightfully takes her place among the great saints of modern India. Her life is an eloquent testimony to the abiding strength of Indian spirituality. Her message is particularly appropriate in a world where the notion of progress is no longer taken for gospel truth and the whole array of our "modern vales" is undergoing an agonizing reappraisal. Anandamayi Ma diagnoses the present disease of civilization as "over-secularization." She suggests that the cure from our severe illness cannot be brought about by engineers, sociologists or psychologists but by doctors of of the soul. -- from the preface
