Situated The Eco Spiritual Ashram is being built at Barang in Pokhara, in the lap of the Machhapuchchhre Mountain, with sacred Panchase at the foot, Phewa Lake at the head, and right adjacent to the Hadikhola. The surrounding lakes and dense forests have significantly enhanced the charm of the area. The project, which covers an area of around 40 ropanis, includes an ashram, a garden and park, a meditation cave, restrooms, kitchens, and rest areas. He hopes that by working on this project, more people will become aware of spiritualism.
The community is hoping that the ashram will draw attention to the village and encourage spiritual travel. “Our community will continue to be unpopular even if it was only 15 kilometers from Pokhara. Since Guru (Vikashananda) arrived here, there has been an increase in domestic and foreign travelers. Here, buildings are being built and jobs are being made available. We are pleased with this, remarked a resident named Eknath Parajuli.
