India Innersearch Ambassador Program:

Spiritual, Cultural & Health Pilgrimages to India

Discover India, Discover Yourself…

India is not so much an outer journey but more importantly an inner one, offering visitors unique opportunities for expansion of consciousness to be discovered when one is ready for transformation.

India Innersearch Ambassador Program conducts spiritual, cultural, and health programs to India yearly.  We invite you to experience India’s vast history and heritage through our specialized experiences geared

towards the well-being and expansion of our participants.  India Innersearch offers not merely a vacation but rather a memorable, life-changing experience.

“India is not just geography or history. It is not only a nation, a country, a mere piece of land. It is something more: a metaphor, poetry, something invisible but very tangible. It is vibrating with certain energy fields which no other country can claim…You can find truth in this poor country in a way that you cannot find anywhere else…The country is poor, but to those who are sensitive it is the richest place on earth.”

—Osho

“India is the cradle of the human race, the birthplace of human speech, the mother of history, the grandmother of legend, and the great grandmother of tradition.  Our most valuable and most constructive materials in the history of man are treasured up in India only.”   

– Mark Twain

“[India] is the “punya bhoomi,” the land of karma.   If there is any land on this earth that can lay claim to be the blessed punya bhoomi, to be the land to which souls on this earth must come to account for karma, the land to which every soul that is wending its way towards God must come to attain its last home, the land where humanity has attained its highest towards gentleness, towards generosity, towards purity, towards calmness, above all, the land of introspection and spirituality — it is India.”

–Swami Vivekananda

“You can find truth in this poor country in a way you cannot find anywhere else….Spiritually India has such a rich heritage that if you can open your eyes and see that heritage, you will be surprised.  Perhaps this is the only country which has been deeply concerned with the evolution of consciousness.” 

–Osho

“In religion, India is the only millionaire…The one land that all men desire to see and having seen once, by even a glimpse , would not give that glimpse for all the shows of all the rest of the globe combined.”

— Mark Twain

Pilgrimages to India

India Innersearch promotes positive cultural, social, and spiritual interaction among travelers of different countries and the people of India.  Our Pilgrimages to India are comprised of individuals who travel together with the intent of spreading understanding and peace by appreciating cultural differences and embracing our spiritual Oneness. Our intent is to foster unity and harmony between people of the East and West, creating a bridge for awareness, expansion, and growth.

“It is not coincidental that whenever anybody is thirsty for truth, suddenly he has become interested in India…And down the centuries, seekers have been coming to this land from all over the world.  The country is poor…but to those who are sensitive it is the richest place on the earth.  But the richness is of the inner.  This poor country can give you the greatest treasure that is possible for human beings.”

–Osho

“So far as I am able to judge, nothing has been left undone, either by man or Nature, to make India the most extraordinary country that the sun visits on his rounds…Perhaps it will be simplest to generalize her with one all-comprehensive name, as the Land of Wonders.”

— Mark Twain
