Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Dear friend, Nice to know that you are planning a trip to Arunachala. May I suggest you one thing? If you have any query about Tiruvannamalai, you may email Sri Ramanasramam and I find that they are very quick in their response to emails from devotees. If you do not have Ashram's email, here it is ashram. I also take this opportunity to wish all friends in this group Happy Holidays and Happy New Year.

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 Dear Richard, It is advisable to stay in Ramanashramam Guest House Please write to president of Ramanashramam get e-mail address from Ramanashram website. If there is no accomodation there, You can stay in Andrhra ashram near by or sri Sannidhi. They arte all opposite to Ramanashram. Normally Ramanashram accomodates foreigners for a short stay With Love, ChandruRichard Clarke <rclarke (AT) svcrm (DOT) com> wrote: Dear Group,My wife and I will be travelling to Ramanashramam for two weeks in January.These bodies are too old to do well staying on the grounds during that time.Are there hotels in the area that are OK for westerners?

Guest guest Posted December 15, 2004 Report Share Posted December 15, 2004 om namo bhagavate sri ramanaya Dear Richard, perhaps to add this: I have stayed at the Ashram itself for 2 weeks. Perhaps a hotel may be more comfortable - but the rooms there also have electric fans and normal beds and some have even Western toilets. Food at the Ashram is excellent. There are also limited places on a table to eat, if you can't sit on the floor. It is of use to bring some things with you or buy in the shop, which is direclty opposite of the ashram and has some Western articles. Important is toilet-paper, as you will not find it there and if you don't want to eat with the hands you can bring cutlery. Also some slippers made of material, which you can wash and dry speedy is very important as there is a constant leaving shoes before entering a building and when rain comes the shoes become wet and there is much mud on the compound everywhere. I had a constant running after my shoes - and they have become wet all the time Drinking water is very important to have with you throughout the day. Best is to use a plastic bottle, but be careful not to use it too long or clean it properly. Otherwise bacterias may come in and you may have a digestive problem. In the dining Hall of Ramanashram one can fill up the water-bottles with drinking water during all the meals. Food was never any problem, but the water-bottle. Also see that you have a small medicine cabinett with you containing things for the digestive system, something against moskito-bites (very important!), something against cold (one catches there easy a cold ) and also some dressing materials for smaller wounds. One needs not to do a malaria-prophylaxis by all means - but take some medicine with you. Saying this out of experience. Perhaps it is helpful to keep in the background for your journey. Enjoy your trip!!
