Saccidananda Ashram

The second experience during those first three years in the slum of Chennai, 1997 till 2000, Was, you know, we're living in the slums, learning Tamil, visiting our neighbors, weaving friendships.

But also, I mean, for me, it was very important to go to see the places where Henri Le Sault Abichitanda was living, you know, his ashram in Shantivanam.

I went to Arunachala, this sacred mountain for Hindus, where the sage Ramana Maharishi was living, in the caves where he was meditating.

And I met still at that time, you know, we are before 2000.
