Rikhiapeeth, located in a remote village near Deoghar, Jharkhand, is the tapobhumi of Paramahansa Satyananda, a renowned spiritual luminary and exponent of yoga. The ashram, which has evolved into a vibrant hub for yoga enthusiasts and spiritual seekers, focuses on seva (selfless service) and offers various activities such as yoga training, sadhana retreats, and ashram lifestyles.
The ashram's unique setting in a serene rural environment allows for detox and living yoga while serving others. The spiritual acharya, Peethadhishwari Swami Satyasangananda, guides the ashram's activities based on the teachings of Swami Satyananda and his Guru Swami Sivananda.
We felt extremely privileged to have with us the following Sanyasis from Rikhiyapeeth: Swami Suryaprakash, Swami Nityachaitanya, Swami Satyaswaroop, and Sannyasi Sukirti as our resource persons among us to enlighten our spiritual wellbeing.
Through the welcoming words of Ms. Lata Singh, the anchor of the event, the Rikhiapeeth Ashram Session of 2024 at Madhusthali Vidyapeeth got underway at 9:40 AM.
The program was divided into two seasons.
