How To Reach Kurisumala Ashram
Vagamon, Kerala, India
A Spiritual Retreat: Kurisumala Ashram is a unique Christian monastery situated on the serene hills of Vagamon. Founded in 1958 by Father Francis Acharya and Father Bede Griffiths, the ashram is a place where Indian spirituality meets Christian monasticism. The monks here lead a life of extreme simp licity, silence, and prayer, following the Cistercian tradition while adopting many Indian customs. The ashram is surrounded by lush green hills, dairy farms, and tea gardens, creating an environment that is perfect for contemplation and inner peace. Visitors are often struck by the profound silence that pervades the area, broken only by the sound of wind and the distant lowing of cattle. The ashram also manages a dairy farm that is famous throughout Kerala for its high-quality milk and sustainable practices. The path leading to the ashram is lined with the 'Stations of the Cross,' which pilgrims climb, especially during the Lenten season. The integration of local culture is evident in everything from the prayer hall design to the food served. It is not just a religious site but a center for interfaith dialogue and a testament to the harmonious blending of different traditions. For those looking to escape the noise of the world, a visit here offers a rare opportunity to look inward and find solace in the lap of nature.
