About

A stay at our center is nothing like a regular getaway. I find that here, most people come in carrying a lot on their minds, but the place itself helps you leave all that behind. The vibe is different - it’s about finding a little peace and reconnecting with something bigger.

Campus Vibes

• Our Bengaluru campus is lush, full of palm trees, flowers, and over a hundred bird species - it’s proper nature immersion, not just a couple of garden patches.
• You’ll hear folks from 90+ countries during festivals, but it never feels overwhelming. More like one big, noisy family.
• Quiet spots are everywhere: the lotus-shaped meditation mandir, the amphitheater under the stars, and random benches tucked between trees.

Daily Rhythm

• Sadhana is your solo time - meditation, outdoor yoga, and joining ancient pujas or homas. No pressure, take part as much or as little as you want.
• Seva means helping out, with no strings attached. Sometimes you’re chopping veggies, other times supporting huge events. It’s work, but it’s fun and connects you to everyone.
• Satsang is when everyone gathers for music, chanting, and wisdom. I’ve seen people who said they’d never sing, end up dancing with strangers.

Stay & Festivals

• Residential stays let you really soak in ashram life experience, especially if you come during a wellness festival stay. Even regular days are tranquil.
• If all you manage is a short visit, even a 10-second pause with your breath helps. That’s the kind of simple stuff we keep coming back to.

If you want a meditation retreat in Bengaluru that’s about everyday joy, not just rituals, this is it.
