I have not met Amma myself yet, though I know several who have. It is kinda the mark of a good guru, that (s)he is able to transmit their energy and wisdom to you. Amma is famous for being quite the 'zapper' - Others are less spectacular and seep into you gradually over long time.

I would rather consider it a temporary opening that works as a key for enacting lasting transformation. What you got was more of an 'example wisdom', to give you an experiential idea of what it's all about that it is possible to work with. But it's up to you to nourish and grow it. Gurus can provide aid, sometimes indispensable aid, but none of them can do the work for you.
