Anandamayi Ma grew up in Bengal, which was also the birthplace of other great Masters such as Sri Ramakrishna, Swami Vivekananda, Paramhansa Yogananda and Sri Chinmoy. She spent almost sixty years of her life going from one place to another across the vast Indian subcontinent, where crowds of people would throng to see her in the blissful consciousness that gave rise to her name (Anandamayi='filled with bliss')

He explains the basis of her strength -- that which enabled her to resist so many attempts at crushing her culture.
"Spirituality is the master key of the indian mind. the sense of infinity is native to it
