Also completing in September will be his meditation tower, overlooking the blessed Ganges River at a powerful waterfall where 4,000 years ago, the Swamis assert the Ganges was born from glaciers.

Pilgrimage is a traditional practice in many cultures and spiritual paths. Travel with a sacred intention has a deep, catalyzing effect on our personal growth and on smoothing the way towards fulfilling our life’s purpose. Traditionally, Sufis and others visit sacred sites such as the tombs and retreat caves of saints. These places have a potent alchemical magnetism that has to be experienced to be believed. The “partition between the worlds” is much thinner; deep meditation is easy, and the atmosphere of blessing in them can have a permanently transformative and healing effect on one’s consciousness, opening the subtle centers and freeing us of accumulated mental and emotional dross.

David and Anna Less invite you to join them in doing a powerful puja (ceremony) with Swami Sundaranand Ji in Gangotri. This puja will initiate and open the Meditation Tower, Guest House, and Photo Gallery that Swami Ji has been envisioning for much of his life. Shahabuddin says Swamiji will invite high swamis and yogis from all over India to participate in this puja, which is the culmination of the lifework of Swami Ji - to commemorate the Ganges, to celebrate spiritual practice and meditation next to the beloved waterfall where the sacred Ganges River was born, and to create a place to remember the disappearing glaciers of the Himalayas via the gorgeous photography that will be in the gallery. The Guest House will offer accommodation to spiritual seekers wishing to experience the powerful blessing of this place which has been kept holy by swamis and yogis. (More Info...)
