Description

The Sant Neenu Ram was born in 1898 in the Islamkot. He was very inspired by the teachings of Hindu saint Poorun Bharti whose shrine is 7 km away from Islamkot. He spent years at that shrine and then came back to his Islamkot to spread the teachings of Pooran Bharti and built the ashram. He built a community kitchen in ashram to serve food for everyone irrespective of their caste and religion. To feed the visitors to the ashram, he used to go from house to house to collect food. Today many devotees coming to the ashram bring food items for preparing food. Devotees also bring food for animals and birds residing in the ashram.
