What to Expect When Visitng

As a karma yoga ashram we balance work with spiritual teachings and community building. We abide by a three day on, one day off work week. For the first 10 days new volunteers do spiritual practices in the mornings and evenings with one of our mentors. Our evenings and off days are filled with mediation, community bonding, and personal leisure. We do many group activities such as hikes in the Blue Ridge Mountains, sports games, talent shows, kirtans, and sharing circles. We encourage you to bring your creative ideas to the ashram!

“What we are is permanent; what we have is temporal. If we focus on the brief then pain wins out and life is suffering. Yet when we focus on the real, the illusion of suffering is seen and no longer hinders love’s path. Thus we suffer not while suffering life’s fate.”

-Satguruyogiprahbu Jnanda Moksha Brahmananda
