The Narmada
Daily, thousands of pilgrims come to seek her blessings. The light, the river and the stone create a naturally silent atmosphere - not created, but already present.
OSHO HOME ASHRAM · BHEDAGHAT, JABALPUR
A place to
simply be.
On the banks of the holy Narmada, in the landscape where Osho spent his youth, Osho Home Ashram has taken root - a space for meditation, music and quiet presence.

Silence, river
and stone.
Osho spent many hours meditating along these riverbanks. In his discourses he often spoke of the marble rocks of Bhedaghat, saying that in the light of the full moon they may be among the most beautiful places in the world. It is here, in this landscape shaped by silence, river and stone, that Osho Home Ashram has taken root.
The ashram rests near the Narmada River, with its white geodesic Buddha Hall and a warm, supportive space for body, mind and inner balance - with a swimming pool and a lush garden to rest, breathe and be.

A LANDSCAPE OF MASTERS
Why Jabalpur.
On 21 March 1953, Osho became enlightened under a bodhi tree in Jabalpur. Many more saints have meditated where the holy Narmada flows - Meher Baba, Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, Guru Nanak, Kabir, Gouraknath Baba.
The gathering
Meditations, chanting and practice at the banks of the holy river - and celebration and dance at the ashram in the evenings.
Amarkantak
At the origin of the Narmada, the landscape turns simple and austere - less about what you see, more about what begins to settle within.
TWO HOMES, ONE WORK
