What is an Ashram?

An ashram is defined by many as a religious or a spiritual retreat. Usually, an ashram is a retreat for spiritual growth, peace, tranquility and meditation. The word ashram derives from the Sanskrit word 'asrama'.

How can Ashram.com help me?

Ashram.com contains information about ashrams, spas and health resorts around the world. While we are trying to compile the world's largest "data warehouse" of holistic retreats we are also dependant on the community to improve our database of resorts constantly. Ashram.com allows you to "slice and dice" data about retreats whichever way you like. You can simply browse by city, country or enter your custom criteria to narrow your search.

In the near future, ashrams for spiritual quests will be clearly marked and diffrentiated from the more commercial spas. Ashram.com will carry both commercial and non-commercial resorts and ashrams in its database. Please read our Disclaimer. While it is physically impossible to visit and review each resort and spa, we are in a process of rating as many resorts as possible.

What about spiritual journeys and ashrams in India?

Ashram.com contains an ever-growing database of information about retreats around the world. We have a tertiary office in India to carry out our extensive ongoing research about the ashrams and holistic retreats in Asia. We will have spiritual journeys and other packages included in this extensive list of ours in the near future. For further information and to contribute please email info@ashram.com.
