Our heart
Home to the unique Salagrama Yanthrodharaka Hanuman.
Nestled in California's Central Valley, HRIM Center is a sanctuary of tranquility and spiritual power. Our center houses the only Salagrama Yanthrodharaka Hanuman in the West — a deity revered for removing obstacles, granting strength, and awakening devotion in seekers of every background.
Under the loving guidance of Amma Sri Karunamayi, we combine Vedic research with meditation, yoga, ayurveda, and the timeless values of love and service.
The Yantra beside Hanuman is the rare Yantrodharaka Yantra — a sacred geometry first installed by Sri Vyasaraja at Hampi in the 15th century, binding the deity's presence in the form of a six-cornered star ringed by twelve monkeys.
