Namaste and Welcome to Badarikashrama
Badarikashrama, located in San Leandro, California was founded by Sri Swami Omkaranandaji in 1984.

The Center provides many activities for those interested in the diverse heritage of India. Through spiritual, cultural and educational activities, the center is a place where young people can learn about the rich heritage of India and people from all walks of life can find peace in an atmosphere of trust and acceptance.
