Shanti Arogya Mandir

Shanti Arogya Mandir, the mobile health clinic, commenced operating in 2003, with the aim of providing primary health care and creating health awareness in the rural population of the villages surrounding the ashram at Magod in the Valsad district of Gujarat.

With a full-time postgraduate medical doctor and staff, the mobile clinic travels daily to local villages, offering free on-site medical advice and medication. It also offers afternoon consultations on the ashram premises.
More than 85,000 patients have received free medical aid from the mobile van, and 16,000 have attended the ashram clinic.

In the future, the mobile dispensary also will play a role in educating people about health and nutrition, hygiene, waste disposal and compost, potable water, and the prevention of environmental pollution.

Shanti Mandir Eye Camps (Netrashibir)

Three times a year Shanti Mandir's global resources are mobilized to organize eye camps in northern India, where people with eye diseases receive treatment. The eye camps are arranged through the Shanti Mandir ashram in Kankhal, next to Haridwar in Uttarakhand State.

Shanti Mandir sponsors the eye camps in association with GMC Eye Hospital, Haridwar. Since 1998, 24 free eye camps have served more than 15,500 men, women, and children. Each patient is examined and either prescribed medication or glasses or asked to return for surgery the following day. To date, 2,847 patients have undergone successful intraocular lens (IOL) surgery to remove cataracts and restore vision. The patients receive free meals, consultation, medication, and transportation to the hospital for surgery.

In each eye camp organized by Shanti Mandir and overseen by Swami Nityananda, great care is taken to ensure a consistently high standard of service in the areas of surgery and postoperative care. The success rate of all surgery performed to date is 100 percent.

 

The generous donations of people around the world enable Shanti Mandir to maintain its charitable works.

You are invited to contribute towards any of Shanti Mandir’s charitable activites.
