Location
Om Ashram is near Dal Lake 2 kilometers from the quaint international epicenter of McLeod Ganj, where the main Temple of H.H. the Dalai Lama attracts people from all over the world. The School is surrounded by the magnificent natural beauty with green rolling hills, majestic trees, and an adjacent stream. Magnificent views over Dal Lake and the Kangra Valley complete the experience.
This setting offers a peaceful and inspiring place to learn and practice yoga. The sound of the river and birds singing, with the sun shining through green leaves allows one to retreat from worldly cares and go deeper into the study and practice of yoga and meditation. Although the school offers an opportunity for retreat, it also provides all modern amenities including Wi-Fi. After productive, full days immersed in all aspects of comprehensive, spiritual yoga, evenings will be relaxing, fun and enriching.
Together, everyone will enjoy kirtan, singing Bhajans around the natural tree and sipping hot masala chai. Stories of the Hindu deities will be shared for a deeper understanding of yoga. There will be a chance for open discussion.
