Osho Ashram Pune

There are many things for which Pune is globally renowned but it's the Osho Ashram that is synonymous with the city's image. A heady mix of spiritualism, and ancient, and modern idea of relaxation, the brains behind this unique organization was the late guru Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh or OSHO. Even after his demise in 1990, his well-appointed ashram continues to attract devotees from America and Europe. Located at the Koregaon Park of the North Pune, the Ashram offers many meditation programs that bring infinite intelligence, and joy.

Mainly a center of meditation, thus the biggest facility here is a soundproof auditorium, where different kinds of meditation keep on happening using various techniques. For all those, who are looking forward to a stay in the Ashram can book their stay at the OSHO International Meditation Resort. With plush interiors, reflecting the meditation qualities of the Gautam Buddha, the resort has tastefully decorated guest houses with ventilated AC rooms with attached bathrooms. The spiritual retreat also has a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, Gym, Large indoor saunas, Tennis Courts, and Table Tennis table. Evening parties are quite prominent in the resort.

In the complex, also there's Osho Samadhi where the guru’s ashes are kept; space is also open for meditation. The commune’s ‘Multiversity’ runs a plethora of courses in meditation and other esoteric techniques.

A beautiful 12-acre park that has been created out of a publicly-owned former wasteland - OSHO Teerth Park is the most famous attraction in Osho Ashram. A well- manicured garden, here one can see streams flanked by the barren patches.
