Venue:

The education is imparted in the traditional Gurukula style of teaching in the "Ashram" area of the southern side of the PraSanti Kuueram campus amidst woods and greeneries. The beautiful nature with chirping of birds, (humming sound of the wind, the gentle lullaby of the breeze through the rustling leaves), flowing through the leaves, and the soothing lullaby of water flowing down from the Darshan reservoir, all these bring out the atmosphere of ancient times far removed from the humdrum of city like and beyond all the spiritual unseen vibrations. Such an atmosphere, coupled with fascinating teachings of yoga spirituality by committed and dedicated Gurus, helps in smooth transformation of the students towards a life of satisfaction and growth.
