Nature at its best

Chinmaya Vibhooti, Kolwan, Pune

Chinmaya Vibhooti  - Vision Center of the Chinmaya Mission Trust is nestled in the hills of the Sahayadri moutains, spread over a 70 acres land.
This was my first visit - not for spiritual reasons but more so to be with nature, away from Bombay which is turning out to be a huge garbage pit.
I had enrolled for a Camp - The Magic of Love (15 -22 Aug, 2010) with discourses by Swami Swaroopananda.

It took us 5 hours to reach from Mumbai ...the major bottlenecks of getting out of Mumbai  till you have cleared Navi Mumbai.  On the Mumbai - Pune Expressway, you cross Khandala and take the Old Pune Highway towards Kamshet. Kolvan is 40kms/1hr from this point and its a bit rough from this point.
