The Ashram offers a variety of programs where you can begin or re-discover your own meditation practice. You can also deepen your existing practice. The ancient yogis believe that meditation is the single most important asset a person can develop. Additionally, a healthy mind thinks positive thoughts, or as Swamiji says, lives in the ‘Clear Space of Good Feeling’. Meditation is the doorway to that space.
Weekly Satsang
Swami Shankarananda (Swamiji), has been holding satsang every Saturday for over 25 years. The event is dedicated to the wisdom teachings of great beings and realised masters from different traditions around the world. It offers an opportunity to meditate in the company of fellow seekers, and to open to a higher possibility in our often busy and mundane lives.
