Badrinath Ashram Construction Plans

We are happy to inform you that since the beginning of August 2012, the new government in the state of Uttarkhand has ended 4 year old ban on construction in all temple towns in the upper Himalayas, including Badrinath. Consequently, since early August, for the first time in four years, we have made rapid progress on the construction of the Kriya Yoga ashram at Badrinath, Since June 2012, the ceiling galleries above and in front of the 6 ground floor apartments have been completed by the masons, and the pillars and ceiling of the office and bookstore have been built. And most recently, the workers have completed the concrete cement ceilings above the meditation hall, bookstore and office (see the above photos). The pillars for the second floor apartments are currently under construction. Our goal is to complete the meditation hall and these 6 apartments prior to the pilgrimage in October 2013. Completion of the other apartments, the two dormitories with their attached kitchens, and the asana hall, which are all on the second floor, will require more time, but could be accomplished by the fall of 2014 and 2015.

So we can all rejoice at the prospect of its eventual completion, and happily envision future visits and activities there.

We are planning a group pilgrimage there from September 29 to October 14, 2013.  Details are at Badrinath Pilgrimage.

 "Blessings from India!

"Back from the pilgrimage to India, it's impossible for me to write about the experience without limiting it. I feel very grateful for the trip organized by Satchidananda and Durga. We haven't wasted time, we have been in very powerful places, well guided in every moment. The group practice of yoga had been really precious to integrate and reinforce the experiences; there you can specially apreciate the great value of the techniques learned. It is an indescribable blessing to meditate in specific places of India...

Mother India is a land sanctified by thousand years of spiritual practices of seekers of Truth, in all its expressions and shades; there one can directly experience the peace that results from surrendering to a higher power than one's self, the peace of being part of the mandala of the Divine Creation, where everything has its proper place. One would wish to keep this peace forever inside. Through the practice of Kriya Yoga we can, at least, create India wherever we are.

Next pilgrimage will be in 2011, so if you are interested in it, you have one year to save money and organize yourself. The trip, of course, is worth value. I hope to return again."
