The ashram was built in the memory of Swami Vishudhanand, the saint better known as Kali Kamli Wala (the saint with a black blanket). Swarg Ashram is a small township located 5 km upstream from Rishikesh. Inside the ashram premises, there are several temples and numerous shrines, each of them depicting several Hindu deities. Every temple is headed by a priest who takes care of the shrine as well as the residing crew. Several religious ceremonies, like chanting, processions as well as birth and death ceremonies, take place inside the Swarg Ashram. All these residential cells, temples, cafes and other complexes that form a part of the Swarg Ashram are maintained by a trust called Kali Kamliwala Kshetra. Swarg Ashram is famous among foreigners as well because of the ethic touch of ancient India it provides. It is a perfect destination for nature lovers.
