==Early life==

Amma Karunamayi was born in South India in 1958. Karunamayi's mother was a devotee of [[Ramana Maharshi|Bhagawan Ramana Maharshi]]. On one rare occasion Ramana whispered to Karunamayi's mother that she would give birth to "Thai" or the divine mother who would help heal the planet. Encouraged by her parents, Karunamayi spent her childhood in spiritual paths immersed in prayer and worship. <ref>{{Cite web|url=http://archive.vcstar.com/news/hindu-spiritual-leader-pays-visit-to-ventura-ep-368946522-349575841.html|title = Hindu spiritual leader pays visit to Ventura}}</ref>
