Devi’s Ratham – A Chariot of Love  

Devipuram is a refreshing balm to frayed nerves. Nestle in the bosom of the mother.

Devipuram, located in the picturesque outskirts of the south-eastern Indian port city of Vishakhapatnam, is the Mother Goddesses’ home - a temple of learning for all of us. But learning what? The Mother through her direct presence energizes in each of the visitors/residents the Shakti of love, allowing us to experience the beauty of oneness.

Devipuram has been attracting thousands of visitors every year from India and abroad. From its initial almost isolated beginnings, the area is recently showing rapid development. The price of land has gone up significantly and is attracting investment in real estate/commerce from local entrepreneurs. While development of this area is beneficial, it needs to be done carefully and in a systematic way that preserves the intrinsic harmonious roots of the area. In other words, we don’t want this to be a “commercial complex” but an outgrowth of inner love that maintains the natural surrounding of peace and joy.

With direct blessings from the Goddess herself, and with help of reputed architects, we have recently put together a plan for developing a Ratham (or Chariot) of Love around Devipuram. The description of this plan is provided below. If you would like to participate, or would like more information, please contact: devipuram@yahoo.com.
