The Spiritual Meaning of Synchronicity: When the Universe Speaks I remember the day I met my master, Amma, the hugging saint. It wasn’t planned.

I was in a dusty, crowded hall in the south of India, feeling lost and quite frankly, a little cynical about the whole "guru" scene. I’d seen so many charlatans, so many performers.

I was about to leave, to write it all off, when a woman I had never seen before gently took my arm.

She didn’t speak English, and I didn’t speak her language, but she looked at me with such real kindness and pointed toward the stage.
