Art of Living International Center

Set atop the Panchagiri Hills off Kanakapura Road in Bengaluru, the Art of Living International Center serves as the global headquarters of the Art of Living Foundation, founded in 1981 by Gurudev Sri Sri Ravi Shankar. Spread over a sprawling, serene 65-acre campus, the ashram functions as a spiritual oasis and a major center for wellness, yoga, meditation, and humanitarian education. Key features on the campus include the magnificent Vishalakshi Mantap (a lotus-shaped meditation hall), the Sri Sri Ayurveda Hospital, organic farms, lakes, and residential retreat facilities that host thousands of international seekers and wellness participants annually.
