The Source
Srinagar,
Kashmir
Constructed in 1962 by Swami Lakshmanjoo, this primary Ashram sits majestically in the foothills of the Zaberwan mountains, between the famous Mughal Gardens (Nishat) and Guptaganga, overlooking the Dal Lake.
It was named "Ishwar Ashram" because Swamiji was often referred to as Ishwar Swaroop (a manifestation of God). The grounds house the Amriteshwar Bhairava Temple, inaugurated in 1983, where Swamiji performed daily pooja irrespective of the weather.
