Matha Gitananda Ashram

                     TRADITIONAL HINDU MONASTERY

Interfaith dialogue


Interreligious dialogue is an important component of ashram life. Over the years, the monastery opened gladly its doors to the meeting with representatives of various religious traditions, as well as representatives of various currents of Hinduism itself.

Some monks in the ashram are also members of DIM (Interreligious Monastic Dialogue).

Here are some pictures of significant events within the ashram for the promotion of inter-religious and inter-monastic dialogue.
