Shankara & Vimala
One of the magnificent homestays in the holy land of Mount Arunachala, Tiruvannamalai, Shivalaya is also a place for spiritual Sadhana and Inner Transformation. We live here surrounded by lush nature in harmony with all life forms. A beautiful garden full of birds, butterflies, dogs, cats and plants will reconnect your soul with nature.
Undoubtedly, Shivalaya is a rare property in Tiruvannamalai, offering the perfect blend of spiritual light and gorgeous modern rooms with a fantastic view of the mountain decorated in classic style with contemporary accents.
Vimala used to be a travel consultant in germany, and Shankara was a flight instructor in the United States. When it was time, we had both been called to this sacred land to live our life purpose of service and Sadhana. We have been blessed and guided by Sacred Arunachala ever since.
Arunachala showed us that the way of our life is the way of Service. Each rupee that comes to us finds its purpose in feeding street dogs, cats, plants and the maintenance of Shivalaya Arunachala. We are committed to offering the best of us and all we have.
