Sri Ramana Ashram, also known as Sri Ramanasramam, is a historic ashram and international organisation located at the base of the sacred Arunachala Hill in Tiruvannamalai, Tamil Nadu. It is dedicated to the life and teachings of Ramana Maharshi, modern sage and Advaita (Nondualism) Teacher, who lived here from 1922 until his death in 1950. He offered guidance primarily through silent presence and minimal verbal instruction rooted in his central teaching of self-enquiry. Established in 1922 around the samadhi shrine of his mother, the ashram evolved organically from a small hut into a significant pilgrimage destination for thousands of seekers of self-realisation, and Advaita Vedanta traditions flocked to be in his presence. The guru's body is also enshrined in a samadhi hall.Wikipedia →
