In 1929, Sri Yashoda Ma and Sri Krishna Prem founded the Radha-Krishna temple in Mirtola. Around it they built a place of work, worship and introspection, an ashram where aspirants could live a life centred around dedication to the Spirit.

Over the years Sri Krishna Prem and Sri Madhava Ashish made the teaching truly universal - a cogent ‘inclusive spirituality’ that can aid every seeker on the quest for the meaning and purpose of existence.

As pupils, we remember how visits to the ashram were intensely treasured for the personal guidance received; the rest of the year one’s individual questions and problems were answered meticulously by letter. This refers of course to the decades before the Internet.

An increasing number of people from India and abroad were drawn to these remarkable men and continue to be inspired and guided by their teachings.
