What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors consistently praise Dhyanalinga for its profound peace and powerful, transformative energies, describing it as a unique meditative space. While some find the walking distances and restrictions challenging, the overwhelming sentiment is one of deep satisfaction and a desire to return for further spiritual exploration.
"Dhyanalinga has been created as a very powerful presence so that the vignanamaya kosha or etheric body of a person is touched just by being in its sphere. To experience the Dhyanalinga, sit and gaze at the linga for a few minutes. Then close your eyes, palms facing upwards, resting upon your lap.
The Dhyanalinga requires no pooja, prayer or worship. There is no need to concentrate or try to meditate. Just sitting silently for a few minutes is enough to make even those unaware of meditation experience a state of deep meditativeness. To be most receptive to the Dhyanalinga, the best way is to be there as an offering – to make an offering of oneself. Taking a dip in the Chandrakund or Suryakund before entering the Dhyanalinga can also help enhance one's receptivity to the Dhyanalinga's energies.
To maintain the silence and sanctity of the space, a bell rings every 15 minutes to indicate when you can enter and leave. Please stay for at least 15 minutes to allow yourself to experience the energies of Dhyanalinga.
Dhyana” in Sanskrit means meditation and “linga” means the form. Dhyanalinga is a profound meditative space that does not subscribe to any particular belief or faith, and requires no ritual, prayer or worship. A powerful and unique energy form, Dhyanalinga creates the possibility for every human being who comes within its sphere to experience life in its totality.
The dream of many enlightened beings, Dhyanalinga was consecrated by Sadhguru after three years of an intense process of prana pratishtha – a pure energy process wherein the energies of all seven chakras are raised to the peak and locked to prevent dissipation over time.
A doorway to enlightenment and spiritual liberation, Dhyanalinga offers a spiritual seeker the opportunity to perform spiritual practices in utmost intimacy with a live Guru, an opportunity traditionally available only to a select few."

"Nice peaceful place.
Professionally managed.
Laser show at the evening around 7:30pm is nice.
Too much walking distance from parking to the temple and the road is in need of repair."

"Extremely beautiful space. The incredible experience is hard to explain, such positivity and peaceful environment. I regret not extending my trip for a few more days."
