About Mother Teresa

Mother Teresa is the personification of mercy and compassion reaching out to alleviate the suffering of millions the world over. She is one of those rare persons who transcended all barriers of race, religion, creed and nationality. Mother Teresa started her mission, the Missionaries of Charity, with just a fiver and she has built up a sort of holy empire the donations to which would stagger many an entrepreneur with mind-boggling figures-with an annual donation estimate of about 100 crores. Although wedded to a life of penance and continence, suffering and endurance, the Mother always exuded a benign smile all around. She was bestowed with the Bharat Ratna and the Nobel Peace Prize and she has already been beatified as prelude to her canonization for her benign services.
