What kind of stay does the ashram offer?
Bed & Breakfast
A B&B stay at the Ram Dass Guru Ashram is for guests who wish to experience ashram life while enjoying a comfortable and welcoming place to stay.
Guests are invited to step into the daily rhythm of the ashram and take part in its activities. The day begins early with morning sadhana, followed by shared vegan meals, time in the communal spaces, and opportunities to participate in daily activities. In the evening, kirtan brings the day to a close.
Alongside this shared rhythm, guests have personal time to rest, reflect, walk, read, or simply enjoy the calm atmosphere of the ashram. The B&B stay offers a meaningful experience of community life and spiritual practice, while remaining light and accessible.
This option is well suited for shorter stays or for those who wish to experience the ashram before committing to a longer or more immersive retreat.
Personal retreat
A Personal Retreat at the Ram Dass Guru Ashram is a dedicated time to step away from daily routines and consciously enter the rhythm of ashram life. It is an invitation to slow down, turn inward, and reconnect with yourself through shared spiritual practice, simple living, and community.
Upon arrival, guests are welcomed into a calm and supportive environment shaped by daily sadhana, communal spaces, and the natural surroundings of the ashram. Very quickly, the quieter pace and clear structure of the day invite you to settle, rest, and become present.
As part of your retreat, you participate in the daily life of the ashram, including morning sadhana, seva (selfless service), shared vegan meals, and evening kirtan. Alongside these activities, there is personal time for rest, reflection, meditation, journaling, walking, or creative expression.
The Personal Retreat offers a simple yet meaningful container to reconnect — with yourself, with community, and with a deeper rhythm of life.
