Giving To The Ashram

All By His Grace

The Neem Karoli Baba Ashram and Hanuman Temple in Taos, New Mexico, is devoted to the teachings of Neem Karoli Baba: love everyone, serve everyone, remember God, and tell the truth.

The ashram is open daily from 6:45 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., with aarti offered morning and evening. It provides a sacred space for pilgrims to connect with the Source of All through meditation, chanting, satsang, and selfless service within a loving community.

Daily activities include morning and evening aarti, the serving of prasad, and hosting festivals throughout the year. During the summer, much of the food comes from our permaculture farm. To reach a broader audience, the ashram offers live streams of daily aarti, temple festivals, and weekly chanting and shares stories and photographs of Maharaj-ji and His devotees online.

The Neem Karoli Baba Ashram is sustained through the generosity of devotees, sales from the Puja Dukan store, and occasional fundraisers like auctions and raffles. All donations to the General Fund are deeply appreciated and directly support the ashram’s operations.

Donations are tax-deductible as permitted by law, as the ashram is recognized as a 501(c)(3) church under IRS regulations. Receipts for donations are sent by mail or email.

Maharaj-ji’s Prasad Dining Hall

The ashram’s mission is to provide a sanctuary for all seekers…

The Neem Karoli Baba Ashram is delighted to share the progress on a long-anticipated project: the construction of a dedicated indoor space for serving Maharaj-jis prasad to the many devotees who come daily to receive His blessings.

The envisioned Prasad Dining Hall will be a 1600 sq. ft. building, featuring covered portals on the West and South sides to accommodate additional outdoor dining. The design will harmonize thoughtfully with the local architectural style and the aesthetic of the Ashram’s existing structures.

While its primary purpose is dining, the space is intended to be multifunctional, allowing for:

  • Outdoor and indoor gatherings for devotees and visitors

  • Satsang, kirtan, yoga, or talks in a serene and accommodating environment

  • Flexible use with folding tables and chairs that will be stored in built-in cupboards

The Prasad Dining Hall will include:

  • A dedicated serving area for prasad

  • Facilities such as a commercial dishwasher, sinks, and ample storage for plates, utensils, and other essentials

This project aims to enhance the experience of those who come to receive Maharaj-jis prasad, offering comfort and utility while maintaining the sacred atmosphere of the Ashram.

The projected cost for this transformative addition is estimated at approximately $800,000

By Maharaj-ji’s Grace, we are confident in bringing this vision to life, serving His devotees with greater ease and comfort.

Your support and blessings are integral to this effort. Stay tuned for updates on this exciting project!
