Site

SHRF - Sarvah Kshema Hospital & Research Foundation
is a project proposed as an unique Yoga hospital and an
advanced center for Rehabilitation & Research in a site
surrounded by nature at Saligrama near Udipi, Karnataka.
Founded by Dr. A. Chandrashekar Udupa, a doctor by
profession and a self realised saint and spear headed by Dr.
Vivek Udupa, SHRF is a place where Yoga and Spirituality
will be taught with scientific evidence in the divine and
serene ambience surrounded by nature.
Site allocated for SHRF is 11.4 acres. Physiologically, the
site is in two parts - a linear heavily wooded front area
followed by a broader pocket which is predominantly open,
with few trees.

Project

The access to the site is from the western side, sloping towards the east and about 8m in elevation, in an average
gradient of 1:50. The Master planning of this project derives inspiration from two major aspects:
• Nature around
• Culture within
While the ‘NATURE’ comprises of groves, vegetation, gentle sloping terrain with water features and the fields around, the
‘CULTURE’ is in the beliefs, faith and the way of life in Divine Park, the unique spiritual laboratory of Sri Guruji - Swami Vivekananda.
