The Beloved Narayani Association Inc. has been established to support the humanitarian projects inspired by Sri Sakthi Narayani Amma.
We are an Australian-based, not-for-profit, spiritual community and welcome people of all faiths.
The first area the association has chosen to focus its efforts is the Gift Of Life Project is the Gift Of Life Project dedicated to helping children born with congenital heart disease.
The cost of medical care for a sick child is overwhelming for the majority of Indian people.
The Gift of Life project is an initiative established in 2007 to provide 310 free open heart surgeries per year to children in critical need.
Thanks to the efforts of foundations established by Amma in North America, the goal of raising one million dollars to complete the surgeries is now been reached and as of July 2011, 350 have received open heart surgeries per year.
Every year 350 surgeries are now sponsored. A few Indian doctors have also been inspired to donate their time and expertise to make this possible.
Each of these surgeries is life saving, with every procedure costing approximately AU$3000. Applications for the surgery are received from all over India and treatment is provided at select hospitals throughout India.
“When you give service to the world you will experience a joy that will stay with you.” Sri Sakthi Narayani Amma
