I had an amazing time at the Center! I can't thank Dada enough for welcoming me and being a great teacher, I learnt so much in the 2 weeks I was there and I now have some new spiritual practices that I will take away with me on my continued journey :) the food is very healthy and delicious and I got to participate in all the practices daily whilst doing the social media - the days were full but meaningful to say the least :)

What can I say about Dada and my experience at the ashram?! My love and appreciation can't be put into words. Dada is the best company ever, the food is absolutely incredible and healthy, the days are extremely peaceful and encouraging personal growth. I learned so much here, about spirituality, yoga, meditation.. and I feel like a big piece of me has healed. The volunteer room is private and extremely clean and cozy. The volunteer job is very chill, and Dada is very helpful and understanding. I can't recommend it enough. See you soon, Dada 🙏

I am truly very grateful for this experience! Dada was always very kind and thoughtful. He shares his knowledge with generosity and respect, and you can learn a lot from him. You will learn simple practices to integrate into your daily life that can help you become more present and improve your well-being. Some days it was just the two of us, and I felt honored to share that time with him. The ashram routine requires commitment if you want to go deeper, but it is absolutely worth it. I highly recommend this place if you are looking for a peaceful and calm space to reset. Namaskar, Dada!

Dada was super kind, respectful, and caring. He always looked out for my well-being. I found the experience of living in an Ashram fascinating, and learned about a whole different way of life. I expected more physical asanas, as I've experienced in other yoga retreats, but with dada I spent a lot more time exploring the philosophy of yoga and yoga as a spiritual journey. I will definitely be incorporating some of what I learned into my everyday practice!

I was warmly welcomed to the ashram by Dada, a fun, kind and thoughtful host. Creating content for the ashram’s social media included posting stories and one reel daily, and the rest of the time could be spent immersed in the meditation and tantra yoga classes and practices. I learned so much during my short time here, and would recommend this experience for anyone curious about spirituality. Thank you Dada for everything!
