Ancient Brahmrishi Geetanand Ashram is a proven pilgrimage place where worship, tapasya, sacrifice, yoga, selfless services, chanting, and meditation bring success. And with the grace of the Guru, all the roadblocks in one’s development get removed. To remove negativity and achieve happiness and prosperity in life, Brahmrishi Geetanand Ashram organizes various meditation and group chanting in the Ashram. In addition to general worship, special worships are organised on special occasions like Shivratri, Navratri, Shraddha, Ganesh Chaturthi, Diwali, Janamashtami etc.
