The Sacred Grove, located amidst the tranquil surroundings of rural Andhra Pradesh, welcomes you to share with your children an educational experience that fosters a deep connection with nature

On July 20, 2025, A Dhyan Mandir was inaugurated by Sri M in a simple yet warm ceremony, attended by a select group of those who have contributed towards this elegant meditation hall becoming a reality.

In 2017, Sri M decided to take pro-active steps to help combat climate change with tangible measures in both The Sacred Grove: Centre for Exploring Consciousness in Chowdepalle and the Madanapalle Ashram

An artisan sculpting a piece of rock, a weaver rhythmically weaving Tana- Bana, a potter moulding a pot on a spinning wheel, a woman embroidering a piece of cloth, or someone’s hand pounding grains – each movement is a meditation, a return to a pace of living that transcends the rush of the world, to the realm of timelessness.

Women’s health is uniquely tied to their role as bearers of life, and Ayurveda celebrates the divine aspects of womanhood by recognizing the distinctive channel within a woman’s body known as the arthavavaha srotas.

Join us for a self-retreat on Sri M’s rendition of Srimad Bhagvatam, from 20-27 August at Chowdepalle.

These camps were designed to bring both parents and children to the same environment, so that the parents may provide the necessary support to the budding inquirers and also themselves connect with this aspiration for life and its true meaning.

Join us for the following 3-day residential self-retreats at The Sacred Grove, Chowdepalle.
