On the sacred occasion of the Mahashivaratri 2019, Swami Ritavan Bharati, our Ashram Pramukha and Spiritual Guide, had initiated the AHYMSIN Sangha into a collective special mantra practice. Thousands of initiates and students around the world practiced the Saumya-Tara Mantra during the last three years. This sangha practice will now be coming to a conclusion in Feb 2022, with a special Purash-charana, Yajna, and Purnahuti of the Saumya-Tara Mantra. On behalf of the Lineage and all our global family members, Swami Ji will be presiding over the conclusion ceremonies.

After the Purnahuti of the previous Sangha Practice, Swami Ritavan will initiate the AHYMSIN Sangha into a new mantra on 25 February, 2022. Further guidance on the new practice will be offered over the following few days.

On the auspicious day of the Mahashivaratri on 1 March 2022, Swami Ji will take a sankalpa for the new practice on behalf of the AHYMSIN Sangha.

With 2022 approaching soon, we now hope and pray to leave behind the memories of covid and enter into a new world with joy, inner silence and stability. We recommend everyone wishing to come to the ashram to check the latest covid-19 travel advisories, as shared by your own country/state, and as shared by the Indian government and the Uttarakhand government. If you are able to safely undertake travels to the Swami Rama Sadhaka Grama (SRSG) ashram in Rishikesh to be a part of these special events, kindly write to us at ahymsin@ahymsin.org

We long to once again be in the meditative and joyful presence of our loved ones from across the globe…
