  Description

  Namaste 🙏🏻
  There is a silence that speaks louder than words.
  It is an intentional spiritual community and yoga sanctuary nestled in the quiet village of Wargal, Telangana (approx 1 hr from Hyderabad city).
  
  It is surrounded by farmlands, temples, and a remote village life amidst nature. It is off the tourist trail and deeply rooted in the ancient yogic principle of Swadhyaya (the practice of conscious self-inquiry), It exists as a living experiment in intentional, mindful living.
  
  Each season, we invite a small number of dedicated volunteers who are rooted in conscious living, yogic philosophy, ayurveda, meditative or spiritual practices.. Not only to help us, but to live with us, practice with us, and become part of our evolving community.
  
  We are a growing holistic wellness and sadhana space created for those who feel called to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover themselves through yogic living.
  Our days are shaped by:
  + Daily yoga and meditation (sadhana)
  + Community meals (simple, sattvic, vegan) and shared responsibilities
  + Retreats focused on deep inner transformation (inner work, sound healing, ice baths, mud therapy, and self-inquiry
  + Periods of silence and reflection
  
  A Day at our place:
  + Mornings begin with your sadhana/yoga and meditation
  + Shared breakfast in silence or gentle conversation
  + Meaningful contributions during the day (media & communications, admin, research, farm, kitchen, retreat prep, space care, community building, etc.)
  + Afternoons with lighter rhythms, learning, rest, or personal practice
  + Evenings may include meditation, chanting, sound healing, or community circles
  + Nights are quiet, grounded, and deeply restful
  
  What You’ll Receive:
  + Comfortable shared accommodation with three nourishing, vegetarian, sattvic meals daily
  + Wi-Fi available (suitable for remote workers and digital nomads)
  + Deep exposure to Swadhyaya (self-study) as a lived practice
  + Participation in selected sound healing, mud therapy, and retreat sessions
  + Space to heal from burnout, transitions, or life questions
  + A profound recalibration of how you live, eat, move, and relate
  
  Many volunteers describe their time here as life-resetting. But, Volunteering with us is not a vacation. It is a conscious life experience.
  
  It is best suited for:
  - Seekers on a path of inner growth or spiritual inquiry
  - Yoga practitioners (beginners to advanced) who want to live yoga
  - Individuals comfortable with simplicity, nature, and silence
  
  Specific volunteering requirements:
  1. Sadhak/Practitioner/Facilitator - Trained/Skilled in yoga, inner work, art, healing, meditative and energy practices, etc.
  2. Anchor/Creator - Skilled in communication, research, content creation, and social media management (preferred - a sadhak/practitioner of yoga, meditation or inner work)
  
  We follow an ashram-style living, adapted for modern seekers.
  If you are ready to slow down, live intentionally, and journey inward.. we would love to welcome you home. 🙏

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We are located next to the charming village of Wargal, home to a beautiful ancient Saraswati (Goddess of wisdom) temple. We’re happy to take you on a village walk to experience local life and culture, and introduce you to scenic treks in the surrounding hills and countryside.
  
  Travellers here also have ample time for introspection, spiritual sadhana, and soaking in the meditative vibes of the farm. You’ll enjoy wholesome vegan food, deep connection with nature, and you will have access to retreats and workshops if they happen during your stay.
  
  What you receive at this place goes far beyond accommodation, meals, and experience.
  Through daily yoga, meditation, mindful work, and simple community living, volunteers often leave with a lived yogic practice, deeper self-awareness through Swadhyaya (self-study), and renewed clarity after periods of burnout or transition.
  
  Life here offers space to slow down, reconnect with the body and breath, and experience rural Indian village life from within. Depending on your role and length of stay, you may gain retreat facilitation experience, creative or community leadership skills, and the rare opportunity to learn directly within a functioning spiritual retreat space.
  
  Most leave with something quieter but lasting.. a grounded mind, a softened nervous system, and a deeper relationship with themselves.
  
  If you feel spiritually aligned and drawn to this space, we’d love to connect.
