    Description

    My name is Ajith, and I founded a project with a vision to create spaces that are in harmony with nature, health, and traditional wisdom.
    We are currently developing an Ayurvedic Hospital using a holistic approach to design and construction, where the building itself becomes part of the healing process. The project integrates natural materials, local ecology, human energy flow, and traditional knowledge systems, ensuring that the space supports physical, mental, and spiritual well-being.
    The entire infrastructure development is planned in alignment with star-based principles (Nakshatra and cosmic timing). Site planning, orientation, construction phases, and material usage are guided by these celestial considerations, honoring the ancient understanding of the connection between cosmos, earth, and human life. This approach allows the structure to resonate naturally with universal energies, creating balance, harmony, and longevity.
    The project is led by Pali Chettan, who brings deep experiential knowledge in bamboo construction, cob work, and Ayurvedic herbs, blending craftsmanship with wisdom passed down through traditional practices.
    The site is located on the outskirts of Pune, approximately 60–70 km away, with the nearest railway station being Yavat.
    This initiative is not just about constructing a hospital, but about creating a living, breathing healing ecosystem—one that respects nature, aligns with cosmic rhythms, and nurtures all who enter it.
