We hold in high regards the universal teachings found within all paths.  We draw insight and hold high respect for Jesus Christ’s true teachings taught through Yogananda, Swami Sri Yukteswar Giri, Lahiri Mahasaya, Babaji. We look to the universal teachings of the 1o Sikh Gurus and ultimately the embodiment of their essence manifesting in the Siri Guru Granth Sahib.

We hold in dear reverence Swami Kripalu (Bapuji), Dadaji, Shri Yogi Amrit Desai. We hold in great regard the Quaker’s Divine Light and direct experience beliefs. We look to Thich Nhat Hanh and the Buddha’s teachings for an example of cultivating a deep sense of peace within ones self. We look to Krishnamurti to keep us honest on our journey and to help us see through the spiritual materialism that is so easily alluring but distracting from the path to realize our true self.

Periodically, Shivoham Monastery holds workshops to help facilitate deeper understanding, we have a goal of having a community garden and offering vegan dinners to the community.
