    Songadh Ashram is a wonderful place full of peace and holy vibrations. Ideally all educational organizations should be like this. The ashram is truely envoloped with the blessings of Charitra-Kalyan. Whoever goes there, is deeply touched by those blessings, peace of mind and incredible enthusiasm. Sure that songadh ashram will keep on showering the same blessings & love to the students.It will also prepare them fully to face the challenges of the world with excellent education, strength, confidence and conviction. Nobody should miss the chance to visit ashram and get the golden blessings of Charitra-Kalyan.
