OUR VISION
FOR RAISING THE FUNDS TO BUILD

The new Vastu residence is nearly complete and Mother Divine will be moving in this autumn, fulfilling our long-time desire to bring the whole North American group of Mother Divine℠ together in one location to create maximum coherence for the USA and the world. Unbounded thanks to everyone who made this happen.


We were very fortunate and successful in our fundraising for this project. At the same time, rapidly rising building costs have made it necessary for us to continue seeking support from our cherished donors. If you would like to make a contribution, pease click the blue button here:

BUILDING PROJECT

The new Vastu Residence for Mother Divine has 43 suites, a large meditation hall, lecture hall, and dining room. The building already has a wonderful, soft radiance that we are enjoying every day. Bringing Mother Divine together in greater numbers will bring great blessings of peace, harmony, and coherence to out nation and the whole world.

BUILDINGS

Renovation and expansion of the campus began ten years ago with the construction of two new small residential buildings overlooking the lake. 

A lead donation of half million dollars has enabled us to construct a new kitchen with guest apartment that will meet the needs of an expanded campus.

New Water Tower and Water System for Livingston Manor

We are also raising $800,000 for the new water tank and water system that is now serving the whole campus.
 

Maharishi frequently emphasized the importance of pure water, pure food, and pure air. One of the most precious features of the Livingston Manor property is the very pure water that comes from our own wells.

The new water tank is steel with a fused glass lining, designed to provide maximum protection to the purity of the water. 

LOCATION

The Global Women’s Center for Peace and Enlightenment will be located on 400 acres in the scenic Catskill Mountains of New York State, where a small group of members of the Mother Divine Program has been living for the past ten years. This property, which includes a beautiful 80-acre lake, has been owned by the Transcendental Meditation® organization since 1974. Maharishi once called it our most sacred land. Though it is in a beautiful, quiet, unspoiled region, it is only a couple of hours drive from major population centers in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Connecticut, Rhode Island, and Massachusetts.
