Brief History

Spread over a lush expanse of 223 acres, envisioned by our founder, Pujya Gurudevshri Rakeshji, the Ashram is a spiritual sanctuary for seekers from all walks of life and with varied interests, faiths and ages. Be it study of texts or listening to discourses, immersing in yoga or meditation, connecting through devotional bhajans or engaging in selfless ‘seva’- each spiritual activity at Shrimad Rajchandra Ashram, Dharampur is designed to tap into a deeper dimension, allowing you to bloom into an awakened existence.

There is only so much that words can convey, and we would love for you to experience for yourself, these mesmerising sights and spiritually charged vibrations so that you can fall in love with this spiritual oasis. A few attractions of our ashram are – 

1.  The spiritual valley - which boasts the glorious Jin Mandir, Shri Dharampur Tirth standing atop its highest peak, akin to a celestial palace - forged with Indian architecture and charged by Indian values. It also is the site of the world's tallest statue of Shrimad Rajchandraji, standing tall at 34 feet. The serenity of this blissful canyon will transport you to a different world entirely. 

2.  Tranquil Gardens - To add to the spiritual atmosphere the ashram is adorned with 7 beautiful, themed gardens which offer a retreat from the chaotic world, allowing one to unwind and reflect, surrounded by nature at its finest. 

3.  Satsang Halls, Meditation Complex & Yoga facilities- To nourish the body, mind & soul we have edifying discourses, numerous yoga courses that range from a few days to several months. We also offer meditation retreats, 'Sadhana Bhatti', a space for spiritual seekers looking to explore the subtle depths of the self. 

4.  Youth and children’s activities - The ashram hosts retreats for teenagers twice a year, giving children an introduction to spirituality through fun-filled activities and games rooted in value education.
