Ìý Amma Tuesday 25 November 2003 Ìý
India's spiritual leader, her Holiness Sri Mata Amritandamayi, better known as 'Amma' or 'mother', is currently touring Europe.

Although Amma comes from a Hindu tradition, she teaches that all religions are equal. And she is the first Hindu leader to introduce women priests. Last year her humanitarian work won her prestigious Gandhi-King Award for Non-Violence.
Angela Robson reports on the woman who draws thousands to see her wherever she goes to receive the special hug blessing which Amma has given to more then twenty one million people.
