Ananda Kriya Yogashram Retreat
Our retreat is an integral part of the Ananda Kriya Yogashram Community. It provides a place for guests from all over the world to come and experience the teachings of Paramhansa Yoganandaji and his direct disciple, Nayaswami Kriyanandaji.
The ancient science of yoga and meditation, made practical and applicable to daily life by our Guru, is manifest in living form in Ananda community life.
In the natural serenity of the rural countryside, removed from worldly distractions and responsibilities, surrounded by other truth seekers, it is far easier to deepen one's communion with God. Direct experience of the Divine presence within gradually transforms all aspects of one's life.
Open to visitors every day of the year, guests participate in a variety of weekend and week-long programs as well as a regular Saturday afternoon satsang. They are also welcome to join in the daily life of the residents, devoting a few hours each day to service projects. For those desiring it, complete seclusion can be arranged.
Retreat accommodations include private cabins, dormitories, and, in dry weather, tents as well. Vegetarian meals are served in a central dining area. Spiritual activities and classes are held in an indoor meditation hall, or the open-sided Meditation Mandir.
