Ashram House Project

In the spiritual journey for many, I believe that at one point in time there will be thoughts of wanting to go on a spiritual retreat, to be away from the material world and give the soul a break to start looking within so that healing can happen.

In Japan, there is “Henro, a walking route that takes in 88 temples on Japan’s southern island, a journey that leads toward self-discovery and personal growth, there are also seekers who go for a spiritual Zen meditation experience to seek to enter a state of selflessness by shutting out worldly desires

In Korea, Thailand visitors stay in the monastery to experience the lifestyle of a monk and In India, there are Ashram for spiritual seekers to visit their Gurus and receive discourses as a group.



The Ashram concept is no alien to anyone, it has only been explained and terms in a different way but the basic concept is the same, for the soul to have a break from this material world and seek soul relief during this period of time.

In 2016, some volunteers were inspired by the great love, devotion that Sree Maa has displayed during the Taupo retreat. Like-minded volunteers wanted to do something so that more spiritual seekers can benefit from this communion between Sree Maa and Bhagwan Shreeji Maharaj.

So Rita and I volunteered to take the lead to start this project of an Ashram House so that we can learn and experience what an Ashram would be like if we want to build one in future. The idea is to have Sree Maa and Shri Ji invited into the Ashram house so that the “setting” is more real and Sree Maa, Shri Ji can share some guidance on how to run an Ashram.

We started the project in March 2016 when we found a house that was suitable to run the Ashram house project. We cordially invited Sree Maa and Shri Ji to the Ashram house which Sree Maa and Shri Ji graciously accepted.

Sree Maa and Shri Ji has sacrificed personal time and space for us to come together and learn something in order for the Ashram project to be realized, the volunteers’ dream is to bring this Ashram project forward, build a place and space which is safe for anyone to come and seek shelter for spiritual upliftment through meditation, listening to discourses or reading scriptures. 

Sree Maa and Shri Ji have graciously given us the tool, that is Quantum Vortex Scalar Wave Photon Pulse, the platform which is the Ashram house to run. There is a Chinese saying, 师父领进门,修行在个人, you can lead a horse to the water but you can't make him drink, I am ashamed to say that few of us came with the wrong intention and were mucking around, I have contributed to the destruction of this sacred Ashram house project because when I saw how Dallia and Joy Kuo were displaying destructive acts and started to bully the volunteers in both subtle and outright manner, I sat on the fence and never red flag any of them as I chose self-protection over being a team player.

I have let Sree Maa and Shri Ji down by acting small, playing games with the volunteers of Kosmic Fusion, being a flying monkey of Dallia, Joy Kuo and wasting precious time of Sree Maa and Shri Ji for being a bystander because of self-preservation and not practising what is being taught by Sree Maa and Shri Ji ... Honesty, Integrity and Authenticity
