Pasag Vihar
Dhyan Kendra • Shant Kshetra • Seva Dham
A training centre for the method of meditation taught by the Tirthankar Parmatma for liberation, and honoured by countless yogi-purushas.
Where dhyan, gyan and seva meet
On the ancient nirgranth bhoomi of Anjaneri (Nashik), Pasag Vihar is taking form — a training centre for the method of meditation taught by the Tirthankar Parmatma and honoured by countless yogi-purushas.
A tranquil campus amid nature, complete arrangements for dhyan and sadhana, spaces for gyan and swadhyay, and the spirit of seva and karuna — the complex rises on these four pillars.

The Bhoomi
The ancient nirgranth bhoomi — Anjaneri
A ground hallowed by the birthplace of Hanumanji, ancient caves, and the remains of 108 jinalayas.
The Sadhana
The inward sadhana of every naya
Seven-day cycles of silence and tattvagyan — Pasag Sadhana leads the seeker toward purity of the self.
The Construction
The first dhyan kendra of its kind in the Jain tradition
Lime-built, environment-nourishing construction — a complex where 108 seekers can practise at once.
About Pasag Bhoomi
The ancient name of Anjaneri is Anjangiri. It is the birthplace of Hanumanji.
Even today the hill holds the cave of Shri Shantinath Prabhu, some two and a half lakh years old; the thousand-year-old cave of Shri Parshvanath Prabhu still teaches the seeker the discipline of profound silence.
There is evidence that as many as 108 jinalayas once stood in the foothills of Anjaneri — and even now the captivating ruins of many of them testify to the grandeur of the past and the sanctity of this ground.
On this land, consecrated by the presence of many yogi-purushas moving in their subtle form, the most ancient tradition of Jain meditative practice is now coming to light under the name “Pasag Vihar”.

Pasag Sadhana
The all-encompassing sadhana of Jain dharma is Pasag Sadhana — a practice for turning every naya (point of view) inward. An inner journey lifted from both sides, emptiness and fullness: that is Pasag Sadhana.
