Discover Yourself at Our Ashram in Gangotri Upper Himalayas Welcome to our Himalayan Ashram
Located amidst the majestic Upper Himalayas, our Ashram based in Gangotri offers a tranquil escape for devoted yoga enthusiasts. Visitors can experience a peaceful atmosphere, find inner peace, and witness awe-inspiring natural wonders. Surrounded by snow-capped peaks, lush forests, and the Holy Ganga River, our Ashram is the perfect sanctuary for those seeking inner peace and holistic well-being.
Sacred Origins of the Ganga
From this revered holy site, Gangotri, one of the Char Dhams in Hindu tradition, the sacred River Ganga begins its journey, carrying blessings to millions in the plains below.
The Ram Temple and Its Heritage
Amid this divine landscape, the ashram also boasts a majestic Ram Temple, standing proudly beside the Amrit Ghat in the Kankhu region, emanating a tranquil aura of serenity and spirituality. The temple was established four generations ago by Ram Sewak Das Ji Maharaj, the seat of the Mahant was handed over to Rama Balak Das Ji Maharaj, succeeded by Mahatma Ganga Das Fal Ahari Maharaj, and presently led by Mahant Ram Krishan Das ji Maharaj, who is dedicated to Bhagwan Ram.
Optimal Setting for Yogic Practices
Positioned 30 minutes beyond the outermost boundaries of civilization, the ashram boasts an atmosphere perfect for any yogic sadhana or tapasya, thus rendering it an optimal setting for individuals desiring to engage in deep spiritual practices.
Amrit Ghat: A Personal Sanctuary
The ashram also has a private and personal ghat (private bank of Mata Ganga river), known as the Amrit Ghat, which provides a serene setting for practice, chanting, meditation, or any other rituals, with its ancient steps leading down to the pristine waters of the Ganga. The sound of the Ganga flowing beside the ghat harmonizes with the chanting, creating a symphony of spiritual energy that purifies the mind, body, and soul.
Mystical Caves and Their Legends
Among the chief features of our ashram are two naturally occurring caves. Local lore has it that one of these caves was occupied by Dev Rishi Narad, the Son of Bhagwan Brahma, during his meditative practices. The other cave is renowned for being a site where several yogis have achieved siddhis. Places like these are rare to find and can help you achieve yogic realizations when practicing there.
A Magnet for Dedicated Yogis
The sacred location of Gangotri has long been a magnet for dedicated yogis, whose continuous tapasya and sadhana infuse the air with palpable energy, fostering a deep connection to the eternal essence of life. If you stay quiet you can feel peace vibrations in the air.
