Our Philosophy
Firstly, we are not a big established ashram or organization, nor run by Gurus or donations. AyurYoga Eco Ashram is a dream of a few simple yoga teachers to live a quiet life in nature, to practice and teach to a small number of committed, advanced students.
Unlike many other ashrams in India, what is taught here is non-sectarian and non-religious. AyurYoga Eco Ashram teachings are based on universal principles of Love, Peace and Wisdom to live a healthy peaceful life in a challenging modern lifestyle. We consider that all beings are Divine and have the potential to live an amazing life under any external circumstances.
AyurYoga Eco Ashram does not represent any particular traditions/styles/ideas/gurus. The majority of our teachers are monks based on ancient spiritual traditions in India and they have their own gurus/traditions in their personal lives. However, we are strict about the principle of not imposing any single path/tradition/cult, but to present the best wisdom from all traditions. We love all spiritual practices from all places, both ancient and modern. We believe each human being is unique and needs to find his/her own path – so we don’t teach you what is Truth – but help you to find out your own Truth.
AyurYoga Eco Ashram does not promise Nirvana (enlightenment), or deep spiritual experiences, nor do we bang you with some abstract spiritual philosophies. We are not Gurus to change you or your life. We are just spiritual seekers on the path and want to share a few simple and safe techniques to help you better manage your body-breath-mind and also talk about the things that impact our life: Food, Sleep, Sex, Fears, Work, Relationships, Self-esteem (Ego), etc.
