The temple houses Adi Shakti, the creator of the universe as per the Hindu believes, where she is worshipped by devotees every day. The temple is situated on the top of the Himalayan hill nearby the town of Narendranagar which was the winter capital of the Maharaja of Tehri in pre independence India.

The Kunjapuri temple offers a mesmerizing view of Sun rise every morning from behind the high altitude peaks of upper Himalayas. You can clearly see the snow capped high altitude peaks shining in a golden light from standing on the porch of the temple. It’s a scared site for people from all over the world and visited by thousands every year with their offerings and seeking the blessings of mother.

Its an ancient cave in the outskirts of Rishikesh approx 25 kms from the town. Located on the banks of Ganga, in the heart of himalayas, there are two caves named after legendary Vasishtha Rishi and his wife Arundhati. Its told in the legend that the couple stayed here for many years and performed intense sadhanas of Yoga thereby attaining knowledge and wisdom. Since then it has been a powerful spot for all the spiritual seekers from around the world who come here to experience the silence and energy. 

Veerbhadra Temple 

JeevMoksha Yoga Gurukul is located in the vicinity of several historical and cultural places of importance. One of them is Veerbhadra temple. Veerbhadra is the name for one of the incarnations of Shiva who was a fierce warrior. As the legend say, Veerbhadra was conceived from the Matlocks of Shiva when the latter was enraged on her wives sudden suicide due to some family confiicts. Shiva became enraged on this and called upon Veerbhadra to avenge the death of Sati the wife. Since then Veerbhadra is regarded as one of the deities associated with various forms of Shiva’s existence. 

The Veerbhadra temple in Rishikesh, is situated on the banks of Ganga and is approx 2000 years old as per the recent archeological findings. Its an important heritage site where several archeological excavations were found which were dated to be around 2000 years old. The temple has the main Shivalingam as the ruling diety and every day people pay their visit to the temple to seek the blessings of Shiva. Its an experience of peace and calmness just sitting inside the temple. Worth visiting once when you are in Rishikesh. 

 White water Rafting 
Sailing on the mighty tides of Ganga river can be a thrilling experience for many who wish to experience the flow and current of this eternal river. Rafting in rishikesh is a popular adventure sport and people from all across come to enjoy it. It can be a refreshing experience after all the hard work on the course. However this activity is limited to only few months a year when the water is less and river is not on flood. The season for rafting starts around october and lasts till June after which this is closed. So those students who join between June and October will not be able to have it as a part of the curriculum.
