Har Ki Pauri, one of the most sacred ghats in the nation, is said to be the first location when the Ganga meets the lowlands, leaving the immaculate Himalayan mountains behind. As suggested by the name, the ghat is also referred to as the Brahma Kund, where you may view the stone bearing an impression of Lord Vishnu's foot.

It is an amazing achievement by the Founder, His Holiness Sri Swami Sivananda, who began constructing the magnificent palace of "Divine Life" in 1936 and did it piece by piece on the solid pillars of chastity, honesty, nobility, and generosity. The aspirations of the society are high, extremely realistic, and accessible to all people, regardless of status, caste, race, nation, or religion. Regardless of social class, the institution serves the cultural requirements of all ranks of people. Each can choose the best one based on height, education, and spirituality.
