Serving Humanity Through Compassion, Education, and Spiritual Values.
Located in the rural region of Purba Medinipur, Ramnagar Vivekananda Seva Ashram is a humble initiative inspired by the ideals of service taught by great spiritual masters. The Ashram works for the welfare of underprivileged children and the local community by providing shelter, education, healthcare, and spiritual guidance.

About the Ashrama
Ramnagar Vivekananda Seva Ashram was established in 1999 at Dakshinbasulipat, Ramnagar, Purba Medinipur, by a group of dedicated volunteers inspired by the teachings of Swami Vivekananda and guided by monks of the Ramakrishna tradition.
The Ashram was founded with the vision of serving humanity through spiritual values and selfless service. Since its inception, it has been actively engaged in humanitarian and spiritual activities in the surrounding rural communities.
Today, the Ashram provides shelter, education and care for orphan girls, while also extending support to the local community through healthcare services and social initiatives.
The guiding principle of the Ashram remains simple yet powerful:
Service to humanity is service to God.
Our Inspiration
The ideals and activities of the Ashrama are inspired by the teachings of three great spiritual luminaries whose lives embodied compassion, service, and universal love — Sri Ramakrishna, Sri Sarada Devi, and Swami Vivekananda. Their message of selfless service and spiritual harmony continues to guide the Ashram in its mission of serving humanity with love, dignity and devotion.
