Sradhavan EcoYoga Ashram

The word “Bhakti” means devotion, divine love.
Love is the highest aspiration of the soul.

Welcome to our ecological Yoga Ashram

Our Ashram is located in a beautiful rural setting on the shores of the Vilcanota River surrounded by the breathtaking Andean Mountains in the Incan Sacred Valley of Cusco, Peru.

Those who like to be outside of the crowded cities will enjoy our retreat center as it  is more a “living” retreat where there is space to go inward and also to share rooms and common spaces with others and be inspired by conscious community.

We have conserved the ecology of the land as all the rooms and social areas have solar energy.  The cell phone reception that is available in the area is with a “Bitel” sim card. We provide two hours of basic internet daily during the day.

I found this retreat to be excellent. It is the first time that I became interested in yoga, and that is because of your guidance and the explanation of the philosophy and also leadership for the poses. I would not change anything about the retreat, it was great. Thank you for everything. Namaste. I am grateful. I especially liked the discussions about missions in life, purpose in life.

Loved all the aspects, the yoga the mediation, the service,being around your family, bringing your life to it, bringing India here, the astrology. Itwas very organized.

Muchísimas gracias! Aprendí mucho, crecí, y siento que el grupo experimento nuevas ideas y maneras de ser. I sense that we all experienced an increase in consciousness and deepening of awareness. We were able to go beyond mental limitations through the physical asanas and increased out knowledge about yoga, meditation chakras, and vedic astrology. The food ws energetically potent and delicious. Gracias tambien por lasconversaciones que compartieron conmigo y por guiarnos with your modeling presence in your family and how you relate with each other. It is beautiful to see a family that is so clearly and radiantly on their path. I appreciate your extra care and long hours devoted to the health and well-being of our group and its members.
