Do not worry about what has been!

At Christmas, following Ma’s wish, the ashram donates a large part of the many offerings made to the temple to organizations that pass them on to families in need and to refugees in Ulm. For the children, Ma added these beautiful plush toys.

The colorful bags filled with Christmas treats were hand-painted during seva – voluntary service – by Ma’s chela and visitors to the ashram.

Above all rests BABA’s loving eye.

Aarti Times Returning to Previous Schedule

Sat, 22 Nov 2025 11:20:00 +0100

Namaste dear Gurubhai and visitors to the Ashram,

after changing the aarti time to 20:30 last week, it has become clear that the previous schedule allowed more visitors to come to the Ashram for aarti and also to participate via livestream.

For this reason, beginning Saturday, November 22, we will return to the previous times: on Tuesdays and Fridays, we will celebrate aarti at 20:30 in the Baba Mandir, following Hanuman Chalisa or kirtan. On all other days, aarti will take place at 18:00 in Brindavon Ashram.

Only during celebrations and on Bhakti weekends, when Ma gives Darshan, will the Saturday aarti also take place at 20:30 in the Baba Mandir.

New Year's Eve

Tue, 18 Nov 2025 00:20:00 +0100

Every celebration in the Ashram is part of our spiritual practice, through which we strive to reawaken our awareness of the True Self—the Divine Nature residing in all beings.
Some people experience access to this higher being very directly in Ma’s presence, and so we look forward to celebrating New Year’s Eve with Ma.

indescribable in return. there is never a void.
