The rooms have an abundant supply of fresh forest air coupled with soothing ambient sounds of the birds and trees around. Sleeping here is a healing experience by itself.
All rooms have fans, plug points, lamps, mosquito nets and beds. We do not use air conditioners, geysers, microwaves, television sets and other appliances that may disturb you or the life around.
Our volunteers are always available to assist you with anything you need. A few details about what is available:

Wifi is available at a designated common area with enough seating for everyone who may want to use it.

We have our car and driver in the ashram 24/7. And a few volunteers who are prepared to assist anytime, so you are safe and secure.
To protect the forest and respect the privacy of residents we have a few guidelines that we follow.
- No food in the rooms. This is to maintain hygiene and keep other creatures out of our rooms.
- There is no Wifi inside the cottages.
- We avoid talking on speaker phones as it disturbs the peace and tranquility of the space and our guests. We provide headphones in case anyone needs them.
- The ashram and surrounding spaces are not meant for consumption of alcohol, cigarettes or any substance use.
- The space has been preserved to heal, align and nourish the mind, body and soul. Please help us make this experience possible for all residents.
Note
The forest has a very powerful and calming energy that allows one to truly discover and be with their inner self. We can write so much more but you can only experience the true depth of it once you come.
