Under very contrary circumstances and situations, Samarpan Ashram has been constructed in a successful manner. It is the initiative of H. H. Shivkrupanand Swami. This ashram strongly believes in the prerequisite of Universal Collectivity. Initially the collectivity has been created successfully then this Ashram has been established.

H. H. Shivkrupanand Swami immediately after descending from Himalayan Mountains, he imparted Samarpan Meditation teachings in Northern India, Sikkim, Nepal and Burma for a many years. In 1999, he conducted initial Meditation Workshop in Nagpur then in Mumbai in 2000 on an invitation from a social worker. The first workshop in the state of Gujarat was organized when he was invited to Navsari. Immediately after winding up the Navsari Meditation workshop, Swamiji along with some sadhaks one day visited the sea shore at Dandi for Meditation.

During the process of this particular meditation session, a powerful energy in the form of 'OM' directly appeared in the blue sky that was created by the magical silver clouds. It is to be noted that OM is a religious symbol that represents everything or entire universe, it is believed this sound was formed during the perfect creation of universe. It is to be remembered that with this particular incident Swamiji largely understood that this appropriate place where His beloved Gurus wished to establish the Ashram.

Shivkrupanand Swami.
