For those who seek a spiritual life and wish to imbibe the discipline of the Ashram

Tapasya is the residential building that also provides accommodation for guests of the Ashram. It is meant for those who seek a spiritual life and wish to imbibe the discipline of the Ashram, participate in community life and help with the cleanliness, maintenance and growth of the Ashram. You can write for reservations through the accomodation request form. This form can be filled and emailed directly to Sri Aurobindo Ashram Delhi Branch at aurobindo@vsnl.com or faxed to 91-11-26857449. You may also contact the reception desk during office hours at 91-11-26567863.

The Delhi Branch was officially inaugurated on 12 February, 1956, with the Blessings of the Mother. To the joy and gratitude of spiritual seekers in Northern India, the Mother graciously granted the relics of Sri Aurobindo to be enshrined here on 5th December, 1957. Since then, the Ashram has been growing at a steady pace. The shrine and the Meditation Hall continue to be the center of life and the teachings of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother, the guiding light.

All live and work here as equals. The doors of the Ashram are open for those who aspire for a higher life, with the trust that their aspiration will not stop merely at having a pious wish for a higher and nobler aim, but will manifest increasingly in the thoughts, the life movements and the physical expressions - which will all be progressively and integrally consecrated to the Divine.
