Description
Experience the ashram lifestyle!
"Yoga leads from ignorance to wisdom, from weakness to strength, from disharmony to harmony, from hatred to love, from want to fullness, from limitation to infinitude, from diversity to unity, and from imperfection to perfection."
- Swami Sivananda
Tantra Yoga is the integrated practice of all Yoga systems. It is a complete science which heals and balances the physical, vital and mental body through the practice of asana, pranayama, mantra, meditation and lifestyle. Through these teachings, people are able to raise their level of energy and consciousness and use it for the benefit of all humanity.

1-Day Ashram Experience
Get a glimpse of the ashram through our One Day Ashram Experience! Available 365 days per year. If you are not sure whether the ashram is something for you, or you are just curious about our lifestyle and program, from morning till evening, we guide you through a day in our ashram.
The day will start at 6:00 am, with morning chanting in the temple. Throughout the whole morning, there will be a comprehensive sadhana with Sanskrit chanting, mantra, Havana (ritual), and yoga (asana, pranayama, mudra, bandha). Later in the morning, there will be satsang, and after lunch, we will go for a short hike up to the Buddhist monastery. In the afternoon, there will be a meditation class, an aarti ceremony (ritual worship), and we end the day at 8:00 pm with kirtan.
Three fresh organic meals are included.
