Our Story
With the grace and inner influence of Mahavatar Babaji Maharaj, the Saints (Mahatma Sunita Baiji, Mahatma Pravin Baiji) and the Chairman Mr. T.R Niraula established the Divine Service Home Kathmandu in the month of August 2001. The Ashram gave the service of old-age care to four mothers who were recommended by various sources and members. With limited bed capacity and nominal finance, the service of the ashram started with the hope that numerous helping hands would automatically come by the grace of God. The trust towards almighty and determination to serve has today resulted in the ashram having 325 members, fourteen elderly mothers (currently residing),15 bed-capacity shelter home, distinct funds for medical, groceries, cremation, and many other supporting hands to help run the ashram.
With a greater vision, aim and enthusiasm to provide service of Divine Service Home in a rural setting of Nepal, Divine Service Home – Hetauda was established by the Saints and board members of Ashram head office. It would not also have been possible to plan or establish an ashram of a bigger scale, capacity, and area in Hetauda without the support of active social workers and members who wanted to collaborate with the team in this noble cause.
The ashram situated in 2 hector land holds the capacity of accommodating almost forty elderly residents (both man and women) and it is currently serving more than 25 homeless and vulnerable elderly personals.
Kriya Yoga and Spiritual Retreat
“You Shall reap what you sow” this simple line has always been the teachings of Saints and Scriptures which guides us to practice selfless Karma and dive into the journey of understanding the inner self and purpose of our existence. The ancient art and science of Yoga explained the scriptures and researched by Various Yogis from past is the greatest gift to humanity. It satisfies the human quest of knowing the reason for one’s existence which is to remain in tune with the supreme consciousness and perform all the karma in bliss simply explained in Sanskrit as “Satchitananda”.
The science of Kriya Yoga gifted by Mahavatar Babaji and transfused by Yoga Avatar Lahiri Mahasaya focuses on exploring the spiritual, psychological, and physical human potential through advanced and scientific techniques. This ancient science of Self-realization was popularized in Western lands by Prem Avatar Paramhansa Yogananda by the direction of his Guru Swami Sri Yukteswor and Maha guru Babaji.
Mahatma Sunita Baiji and Mahatma Pravin Baiji belong to the same clan of Guru-Shisya Parampara(tradition) of Kriya yoga and are ordered by their masters to spread this knowledge of Kriya Yoga to interested and potential seekers who come with hope and devotion. Many national and international seekers from all over the world have taken “Diksha” (teachings) from these Mahatmas and are practicing the science of Kriya yoga in bliss.
The Ashram also provides Hatha Yoga lessons, spiritual teachings, Satsang, Spiritual retreat facilities and a suitable environment for spiritual seekers to learn and practice different forms of yoga. Mr.Sajal Neupane one of the students of Mahatma Sunita Baiji and a volunteer who is a certified Hatha Yoga trainer and musician provides Hatha yoga and Kirtan lessons to earnest seekers.
