OUR VISION
FOR RAISING THE FUNDS TO BUILD

The new Vastu residence is complete and Mother Divine moved in on March 23, 2026, 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 are now beginning to renovate the building that will house our retreats and are seeking support from our cherished donors for this new project. If you would like to make a contribution, please click the blue button here:

BUILDING PROJECT

The new Vastu Residence for Mother Divine has 48 suites, a large meditation hall, lecture hall, and dining room. The building 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 our nation and the whole world.

BUILDINGS

Renovation and expansion of the campus began in 2008 with the construction of two new small residential buildings overlooking the lake. 

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

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.
