Description
We welcome you to the Yoga Ashram in the foothills of the Austrian alps and to immerse yourself in spiritual practice, seva and karma yoga and to be part of our sangha!
VOLUNTARY SERVICE & PRACTICE
We wholeheartedly invite people to come for voluntary service and benefit from the Ashram’s auspicious Atmosphere.
Sincere and dedicated Sadhakas (people who are willing to take to the necessary discipline) are invited to reside at the ashram long term (3+ months). In this case you can expect a full and free immersion in in-house courses and gatherings, like Yoga classes and Retreats (both as a sadhaka AND server) and a self-responsible involvement into the organization of the ashram, its maintenance and development.
For Sadhakas who can’t afford to buy their own food and personal essentials during their stay, the ashram will cover the costs.
PRECONDITIONS
(1) Membership
(2) Openness to adopting a Daily Spiritual Practice (Sadhana) & to cultivating Spiritual Devotion (Bhakti)
(3) Self-Sufficiency in regard to food and personal essentials
(4) Adherence to the Ashram Rules

TAKE A DIP INTO ASHRAM LIFE
An ideal day at the ashram is spent in constant remembrance of the Self. This intention should be renewed daily by formal practice, morning and evening, either privately or together with others.
In between we engage in meaningful work or family duties, and strive to make our life our sadhana by purifying ourselves and sanctifying the space through our actions. We strive to practice kriya yoga in its broader sense:
ACTION WITH AWARENESS
Ashram endeavors reconciliation of the householder & family life with the spiritual life. Usually 4-6 people reside at the ashram, this includes Chaitanya's family and one or two other sadhakas.
Help
Depending on the pending tasks your service will have the scope of few hours a day and most likely be in one of these areas: tending the altars and the temple, house cleaning and maintenance, garden maintenance, medial promoting of the ashram, kitchen service during gatherings etc.
