Nestled in the serene Redwood region, the gurgling flow of the Eel Ganga and the stunning views of the mountain ranges make, Krishnalaya an ideal place for a retreat.

Swami Chinmayananda frequently resided at Krishnalaya, conducting numerous spiritual retreats and often comparing its serene beauty to the sacred Himalayas of India. He lovingly referred to the river as the ‘Eel Ganga’. A magnificent idol of Lord Krishna graces the original temple shrine, captivates all with his divine presence and gentle smile.

Gurudev’s presence is very much alive and vibrant in Krishnalaya. His residence is being maintained as he left it. His bedroom is a sacred haven for meditation. His living room/library is used for silent reading, reflection, and classes. Guests are welcome in both quarters.
