Together with the ashrams at Dakshineswar, Noida, Dwarahat and Chennai, it organises retreats and sadhana sangams, gatherings of intensive practice with group meditations and classes given by monastics of the order. It is the reference path in India for studying his Lessons, which are available in English and in several Indian languages.
