Sat Manav Yoga Ashram

We homage our Sat Guru Sri Bhusunda whose light can dispels all ignorance and guide us to true fulfillment.

Sat (meaning “truth”) Manav ("human being") Yoga ("union") Ashram ("place of spiritual retreat") is home to practicing Yogis and our Gurus Bhagavan VaShi Baba and his wife Sri Mirabai Ishwari.

Our ashram is the place where Vashi Yoga lineage resides. This lineage is held by Bhagavan Vashi Baba and Mirabai Iswari, which  devote every minute of their existence to benefit of all beings on intense sadhana (spiritual practice), teaching and guiding their disciples.

Sat Manav Yoga Ashram is located in the mountains of western Maine, USA. Our public events are a rare, inspirational opportunity to step out of the common daily life and travel back in time to a pure Yogic ashram reminiscent of ancient India.

We follow a disciplined routine based on Spiritual practice (Sadhana). Our practice is dedicated to yok, unite, our attention with the movement of prana resulting in expansion of the energy force, the awareness and the senses. As a result, it brings every Sadhaka (spiritual practitioner) and Sanyasyn (spiritual practitioner renunciate) to expand life and then emanate it. As a group we seek to increase this potential to emanate more intensely. The ultimate way to reach this goal is what our Guru, Bhagavan Vashi Baba, is seeking to attain: the Divya Deyha or Divine Body. The Divya Deyha is the greatest of the Yogic siddhis (natural power) and is the ultimate fulfillment of divine human potential.

Our offerings to the public have the purpose to guide and direct all those who are looking to benefit life and transform their lives into an amazing existence, helping others and reach fulfillment. We welcome guests and visitors by prior arrangement to attend our Yoga retreats, Meditation retreats, Yoga Festivals, Personal Retreats, Weekly Yoga Classes and more or to come to visit our sacred shrines and temples.
