Vishalakshi Mantap
Named after Poojya Gurudev’s mother, ‘Vishalakshi’. Vishalakshi mantap is the focal point of the Ashram. This beautifully crafted architectural marvel has been conceived and designed by Gurudev himself. The Mantap known for its intricate craftsmanship, stunning illumination, and elegant décor was built with the dedicated efforts of 7,000 workers and volunteers.
The glass dome that tops the building is adorned with a magnificent ‘kalash’ – 15 feet 3 inches high – the tallest in Asia. Gurudev has best described the feeling one gets when inside the Mantap as ‘coming into the lap of the Mother Goddess.’ No one has yet been able to resist falling in love with the Mantap.
