Surrounded by nature
Our home is located in Chanthaburi, Thailand — a land Maharishi referred to as the country of enlightenment — where the sacred mountain Khao Kitchakut overlooks us from the east. Nestled within over 110 acres of pristine tropical land, our Maharishi Maha Vastu offers a peaceful, rejuvenating environment immersed in nature. Since 2008, it has been the permanent home of the Asian Mother Divine group whilst also hosting Transcendental Meditation Teacher Training Courses, World Peace Assemblies, and Advanced Courses. The grounds are alive with vibrant tropical flower gardens and flourishing organic fruit orchards, where we cultivate a rich variety of fruits including bananas, rambutans, mangos, papayas, durians, avocados, and many other exotic species — all grown with great care and respect for the land. Nestled in natural surroundings, the facility radiates a deeply silent atmosphere.
Our Maharishi Maha Vastu
Every building on the property is designed and constructed in alignment with the principles of Maharishi Vedic Architecture, an ancient system of natural law-based design that promotes harmony, balance, and well-being. This architectural approach considers orientation, proportion, and environmental alignment to create spaces that uplift and support both mind and body. The result is a built environment that feels deeply peaceful, nourishing, and attuned to the rhythms of nature. Complementing this serene setting is our newly built pool, thoughtfully integrated into the landscape to provide a refreshing space for relaxation and rejuvenation amidst the natural beauty.
Peaceful Private Residences
We offer exceptionally comfortable and generously spacious private rooms, thoughtfully designed to provide a serene and restorative environment. Each room is fully furnished with natural materials and tasteful decor that reflects the peaceful surroundings of our campus. Guests enjoy the comfort of air-conditioning, ensuring a cool and tranquil atmosphere even during the warmest days.
Every room includes a modern, private full bathroom, offering both privacy and convenience. Large windows invite in natural light and frame stunning views of the nearby mountains, lush gardens, or peaceful forested areas, creating a deep sense of connection with nature.
Wholesome Vegetarian Dining
Meals at our centre are crafted with care and intention. We serve fresh, nourishing vegetarian cuisine made with organic ingredients, many of which are sourced directly from our on-site orchards and gardens. The menu changes with the seasons, highlighting the flavours of local fruits and vegetables at their peak. Every dish is designed to support vitality, balance, and clarity, following Ayurvedic principles that honor the connection between food, body, and consciousness. Dining here is not only a pleasure — it’s a key part of the holistic experience we offer.
Nature Excursions & Local Adventures
Surrounded by majestic mountains, tropical forests, and pristine coastal landscapes, our campus is ideally situated for nature lovers and explorers. Just a short distance away, you'll find national parks filled with wildlife, peaceful trails that lead to breathtaking waterfalls, and tranquil beaches where you can swim, walk, or simply enjoy the ocean breeze.
Enjoy the gentle sweetness and purity of Thai culture along with morning walks in the fruit orchard, or a refreshing swim in our new swimming pool facility.
