Panmana Ashramam

Panmana Ashramam holds a special place in Kerala’s spiritual and cultural landscape as the final resting place of Sree Chattampi Swamikal, whose teachings emphasized universal brotherhood, non-violence, and self-realization. The serene environment of the Ashram, set amidst coconut groves and natural greenery, provides the ideal atmosphere for spiritual seekers and devotees.

The Ashramam complex includes a temple, library, prayer hall, and a Vedic school, where discourses, meditation sessions, and Sanskrit studies are held regularly. Annual celebrations like the Samadhi Day of Chattampi Swamikal draw visitors and spiritual leaders from across India. The Ashram is managed by the Sree Vidyadhiraja Trust, which also supports social and educational services in the region.

Visitors often come here seeking peace, reflection, and an opportunity to connect with the enduring legacy of a visionary who reshaped Kerala's spiritual and social thought.
