ABOUT NAVAL VEERAYATAN

Veerayatan’s second major site—Navalveerayatan— was inaugurated in 2000 near the city of Pune in the Western state of Maharashtra. Since September 2000, over 14,500 visitors from all over the world have experienced the beauty and serenity of Navalveerayatan.

Nestled amidst mountains overlooking a lake, Navalveerayatan is guided by the belief that individual change leads to societal change. By focusing on inner and personal development, Navalveerayatan seeks to advance Veerayatan’s overall global visions by starting with each individual.
