the path of the mother


A six-stage journey to union with the Great Mother, framed by Savitri Bess's own years of devotion to one of the Mother's most famous incarnations--the Hindu mystic Amma (Mata Amritanandamayi ). Interweaving Hindu myths with Savitri's own quest and those of others, Bess reveals this journey as an exodus from aloneness to the wondrous integration of love, worship, and service into life's daily tasks.


"...a feast for the soul...Throughout this fascinating spiritual adventure and personal pilgrimage, Savitri Bess introduces us to Ammachi [Amma], The great Holy woman from India. Bess lovingly offers us lessons, insights, and prayers that might very well break open your heart and change your life."

--Patrice Karst, author of God Made Easy
