“Very nice place to walk my dog. We sit and watch the tennis players. There is a nice park for the kids with water fountains to play in. The memorial is a beautiful tribute.”
“I had the privilege of seeing Amma on her tour in 2018. My son really likes hugs and when I heard about Amma--who is known for many things, including having hugged more people than anyone else in the world--I figured it would be a good cultural experience. My husband, son and I went and it was a wonderful experience. She hugged us: first son, then son +husbnad, then son+ husband+me. I didn't know what to expect but it was quite moving. If you visit when Amma is here, you get an intro video that explains her work (impressive), some meditation (nice). Newbies are invited to sit at the front and you get hugged early on. After that, you can shop the visiting vendors and buy some yummy food they set up outside. The grounds are beautiful too. Try to arrive early. Identify yourself to the greeters as a first-time visitor. Amma's volunteers do lots of interesting things on site when she isn't here: gardening, making food for those in need, recycling projects. They also COOK FOOD AND DELIVER IT EVERY SATURDAY. This can be combined with delivery of fresh fruits harvested from the Amma center. Check out the Food From Home Yelp review for more information on that.”
“Rubys Place has changed my life. I can’t thank the caring staff enough for all of their help. They were able to assist me in housing, and have other resources that are so helpful. Because of them I am able to move forward in life, they truly care.”
