Why Offer Annadanam?

Spirituality is deeply embedded in India’s cultural fabric, and providing support to a seeker on the path has always been considered of paramount importance. Annadanam – the offering of food – is an ancient and beautiful expression of this ethos.

At the Isha Yoga Center, Annadanam is offered daily to thousands of brahmacharis and volunteers, who have dedicated their lives to enhancing human wellbeing through various spiritual and social initiatives, and to guests and visitors.

Through a simple act of donating Annadanam, you can touch another life and enrich your own.

Volunteer's Experience of

Receiving Annadanam

When I serve food in Bhiksha Hall, I feel like there is a very profound interaction between me and the person I am serving. A deep connection beyond boundaries and words..

Chiragh C.

I feel so grateful to be given this precious food, a life-making material. Because of the generosity of so many people, I am able to devote myself fully to making Sadhguru's vision a reality, without any concern for my survival.

Behind the Scenes:Annadanam at Isha

Akshaya

The Kitchen

The Akshaya Kitchen is dedicated to preparing nourishing meals for all at Isha. Akshaya means “never-ending” or "inexhaustible" in Sanskrit, which truly embodies the ethos of our kitchen. With over 200 volunteers offering themselves to various activities, this mega-kitchen produces over 10,000 meals like clockwork – every day, throughout the year.

Bhiksha Hall

The Dining hall

Freshly prepared meals from Akshaya are served twice a day at Bhiksha Hall, a name derived from "Bhiksha," which represents "alms" or "offered food." More than just a dining facility, it is a place where the act of eating becomes a profound experience. Both serving and eating food are done in silence, in an atmosphere of gratitude and reverence.
