A place to pause… A space to grow…

Hidden within a mountain forest, alive with streams, trees and wild nature.
Here, life becomes simpler. Wake with the singing of the birds.

Move and breathe consciously. Eat nourishing food. Care for the land. Sit in silence. Meet yourself and others with presence.

There is nothing you need to become.
Just space to listen, live and unfold.

Bodhi Vanam – Awakening Forest

How can we live closer to our essential self, one another and the nature ?

Bodhi Vanam is a non-profit, non-religious sanctuary within an organic mountain farm near Kodaikanal. A place where inner practice and everyday living meet, where tending a garden, preparing food, relating, resting and sitting silently can all become conscious living.
