History and Structure
 

  Malmo was the first ashram established in the USA in 1984.  Babaji Himself chose the site and gave the instructions.  Muniraji sent Dr. Arvind Lal here for Guru Purnima in 1984 after Babaji had left, and told him to initiate the first American Ashram.  He performed Havan and we had a ground-breaking ceremony on the proposed site for the Temple. 

  In 1985, when Shastriji was here, he chose the exact location for the Temple and told us to put quartz crystal and rose quartz in the ground where the altar would be built above it.  This was done in the fall of 1985 for purification and preparation purposes.  By Fall Navaratri of 1988, a mandir was built over this spot.  Our Divine Mother murti, Shri Rajeshwari (Queen of Queens), was blessed by Shri Muniraji and Shri Shastriji during the Navaratri, then was carried home by hand by Ellen Levand (now Samaj President), at Shri Muniraji's request.  She arrived here on November 11, 1988 (11-11-88), and the daily pujas have continued on ever since.  She has been joined by Shri Hanumanji, who was blessed and given life in 1989 at the Kumbha Mela in Allahabad; Shri Maha Kalbairav; Shiva Lingam, Ganesh, Nataraj and photos of Shri Maha Prabhuji (Babaji). 

  Haidakhandi Karma Yoga and Peace Center is the name of our Ashram. We host events, organize seminars and have a membership.

 Ashram Grounds
 
 

Dhyana Dhuni
 

  Dhyana Dhuni: named by Shri Muniraji, it means "Meditation place for fire ceremony".  Since this building was constructed in 1991, it has provided a place to perform the sacred fire ceremony weekly, no matter what the weather.  The Fire Ceremony has brought great blessings to the ashram. We are now doing some fund-raising to add more windows and more ventilation to the building to ease the smoke problem.

The Central Courtyard
 

  The Central Courtyard:  overview from the second floor of the house.
  This is an early summer shot when everything is green and blooming.  Our soil is so rich that the place becomes lush and green from early spring to fall.  We grow vegetables and flowers in the circle around the fountain. There is a much larger garden down below the Dhyana Dhuni.

Universal Peace Temple
 

  Universal Peace Temple: constructed in 1992.
  This building is 24' wide and 54' long.  Inside is the sanctuary, which was first completed in 1988, then surrounded by the rest of the building and the kirtan hall. Completion of this building took place in 1997, in preparation for Shri Muniraji's visit.  This is where the morning and evening Arati ceremonies take place each and every day.
 As we receive donations for the Temple, we keep improving the grounds, the buildings, and all the facilities for accommodations.   Click this photo of Mother to go to the Temple page (three photos, 200k).

 Our newest project is an underground greenhouse/root cellar,  which will allow us to grow our own food all year around and store it. For more details on projects and events, please call and ask for our newsletter. 1-877-642-9238 or 1-877-918-1008.
 Om Namah Shivaya
