Eco Ashram also known as ‘SWASTIGRAM’ is located in the foothills of the Himalayas near Rishikesh, where the Holy River Ganges first meets the plains of India. SWASTIGRAM’s supreme objective is to create harmony between human beings and Nature through an eco-friendly and ethical way of life.
The place is dedicated to sensitise people on different environmental issues, connect them to nature and make them aware about different components of eco-friendly living which they can implement in their own lives. This will be done through multiple programmes catering to group of professionals including lawyers, politicians, bureaucrats, hoteliers, real-estate builders, NGO’s etc.
Most of these people either have to take environmental clearances or are approving authorities. When the decision makers become more sensitive towards the environmental impact, they will try to contain the damage as much as possible.
Eco Ashram is also a model of eco-friendly living. We are in the process of redeveloping this place.
This place will have all the components of an eco-friendly living like rainwater harvesting, solar panels, waste water treatment, composting, fruit trees, vegetable garden etc. So, when people come here, they get to see everything practically and go back and practice the same at their respective places. And, if they need our support, we will connect them to the experts of each of the components.
