Sonoma Ashram

Sonoma Ashram is the only ashram outside of India dedicated to the principles and practice of the ancient mystical lineage of Aghor. The ashram is a center for self-growth and spiritual retreat, as well as a community of residents who strive to live a meaningful life inspired by the practical wisdom of Aghor. The ashram welcomes people from all walks of life, regardless of religion or belief, and offers a sanctuary of peace and nurturing through day visits, personal retreats, and long-term stays.

What is Aghor? The meaning of Aghor is “that which is not difficult, that which is not complicated, that which is whole.” Aghor is our natural state. Our natural state that we are born into is wholeness. When we came on this earth, there was no discrimination existing within us. We were open to everything. This state of nondiscrimination is the foundation of Aghor. It is simple and easy to comprehend. It is an easy path to walk on, but it takes courage.
