New Beginnings
In the sacred understanding of Kaal, every transition offers an opportunity to pause, reflect and renew our Sankalpa. Navotsav is a 4-day residential experience at Shala Gurukulam, bringing together Yoga, Prakriti, Sanatan wisdom, Sadhana, Satsang and Sangha, woven together in the spirit of Utsava, a sacred celebration that uplifts the body, mind and spirit. As one year dissolves into another, step into the sacred rhythm of the Gurukulam, and gather in stillness for Shiva Sadhana

The Gurukulam
A Living Space for Timeless Wisdom
Nestled amidst the Himalayan landscape of Shimla, Shala Gurukulam is an endeavour to revive the timeless Guru-Shishya Parampara, where knowledge is not merely taught, but received, practised and lived.
Rooted in the traditional Gurukula way of life, the Gurukulam seeks to create a space where seekers can come close to the teachings, their teachers and the living wisdom of Sanatana Dharma.
For Navotsava, this sacred space opens its doors for you to experience the rhythm of Sadhana, Satsang, Seva, Sangha and Utsav, and to welcome the New Year in the spirit of a conscious new beginning.
