Introduction Located in Bali, the Yayasan Rama Sita Sanctuary is a genuine humanitarian cause with both heart and soul. Yayasan is the name given for a legally registered Non-for-Profit charity organization in Indonesia. The Sanctuary has been created to support human beings in need. Our humanitarian Cause is - Saving Lives - Alleviating & Reducing Suffering - Maintaining & Supporting Human Dignity By providing a harmonious space for emotional healing and spiritual transformation we contribute to the peace and wellbeing of our planet. IT IS OUR PRIVILEGE TO WORK FOR THE GREATER GOOD OF ALL AND TO SERVE HUMANITY. We are honoured to share our vision with you, and deeply appreciate your time in viewing this Presentation.
What the Sanctuary offers In our modern world exhaustion, imbalance and confusion are unfortunately becoming the norm. People are often overwhelmed by the polluted environment they live in, disconnected from their Soul, always chasing something that is seemingly out of reach. To hear and follow a gentle whisper of Truth, a Soul call coming from within, a sacred and peaceful space is needed. The Rama Sita Sanctuary offers such a safe, harmonious place (Buddha-field), in which our community members & guests can find true calm and tranquillity. It is vibrant with the spirit of unconditional love, wisdom and humility. Our mission is to further develop this Haven for seekers of Truth drawn towards spiritual Awakening or sensitive beings in need of spiritual Healing. To truly help these people, what is needed is an Oasis, providing support on all levels, including emotional, practical and financial. It is of paramount importance that guests feel totally safe and protected, surrounded by nurture. All of this gives people understanding, a gentle embrace and warm hope. The further expansion and development of our Healing Centre will enable us to continue with our mission which consists of: - a fully-fledged operational Spiritual Village, - financially assisting people in acute Spiritual Emergencies (with their healing process at The Sanctuary), - offering counselling & healing on a donation basis, - providing spiritual guidance and teachings free of charge, - restoring our local village temple to help preserve ancient Balinese culture, - financially supporting the underprivileged in Bali. We believe that our humble mission provides that, which is greatly needed by so many people. By successful fundraising and the volunteering efforts of good willing people coming together here, we are sensing a very good chance to achieve our full Vision for the greater good of all. The Founders The founders of this beautiful and selfless vision are Om Rama and Pak Mangku. They have been close friends for many years and their tight-knit partnership is essential to the development, operations & sacredness of the Sanctuary. Prior to founding the Rama Sita Sanctuary, Om Rama operated a healing clinic in Australia that supported hundreds of clients with a variety of mental and emotional issues on a donation basis. He has offered His support and healing abilities for decades now and considers this selfless service His life s mission. As a spiritual Teacher, Om Rama is rooted in the ancient Advaita Vedanta (Non-Duality) tradition.
In his youth he met many teachers that had a great impact on his further profound spiritual journey. His vast understanding, the humility of his compassionate Heart and the dedication to helping others gave him the maturity of many years of experience. With the Grace of God he now finds Himself completely in a role of selfless service. For over 25 years, Om Rama has been deeply connected to and most respectful of the Balinese culture, the local people and their spiritual ways of living. Pak Mangku is a Balinese Temple High Priest, who naturally matches the soul qualities embodied by Om Rama. He brings maturity, devotion and humility, along with an intrinsic understanding of the ancient Balinese culture. His presence allows the Sanctuary to be built and developed in harmony with the purity and simplicity of the local Balinese people. Pak Mangku has been spiritually supporting the members of his local village for decades. Combining both Pak Mangku s and Om Rama s wisdom is actively increasing the potential impact of this extremely valuable humanitarian cause. After years of being committed to the vision and trying to bring it into life with very little help, Om Rama, Pak Mankgu and the Sanctuary are now finally being supported by a few volunteers from around the world who are learning every day about how natural and beautiful it is to be of selfless service to others. They are all dedicated to the cause and see an absolute necessity for creating a peaceful Healing Centre to help people in any kind of genuine need, as they themselves are now the testimonials of receiving great mental, emotional and spiritual guidance.
The Sanctuary itself to date Where we stand today The Rama Sita Sanctuary is located on sacred Land on very powerful Earth Energy lines. Amongst peaceful rice fields next to the Pinjul village it is only a 15 minute drive away from Ubud. Strategically situated the Sanctuary is accessibly close to this small town in the heart of Bali yet it is far enough removed to still be serenely untouched and pure. This location was carefully chosen and is most suited to match the purity of its original vision. With clean air, calm village life and no traffic, this area is a very precious and rare refuge. Prayer & blessing ceremonies are performed every day by the Balinese Priest Mangku Family & Om Rama Himself, creating an incredibly sacred & holy energetic space here at the Sanctuary, which we call the Buddha Field. The Rama Sita Sanctuary is actively performing regular public philosophical teaching meetings, monthly non-residential retreats and daily healing sessions available for participants and guests. To date, with the gracious help of only a couple of private Patrons, approximately 1/10 th of this Healing Centre and Spiritual Village in its entirety has been realised, all within the past year. The Centre is functioning and already operating completely on a volunteer and donation basis, however currently only on a small and limited scale. 90% of our focus now needs to be concentrated on further development to complete the full-size Healing Centre and Spiritual Village.
This Fundraising Proposal is divided into five developmental categories: - Building costs for the completion of the existing land block, - Securing 5 adjoining land blocks around the existing Rama Sita Sanctuary land, - Securing the internal access road, - Development & building costs of all the 5 additional blocks, - Restoration of our local Pinjul Village Temple. Financial Budgets and detailed Development Plans are available to view on interest or request for serious clients and potential patrons. ** Immediate funding is required to secure the internal road access & the additional Land blocks. This is considered to be absolutely crucial for the success and on-going development of this Sacred Sanctuary. Surroundings that are left untouched by others will keep this Sacred Space pure and more powerful. Should you feel inspired to help support these next crucial steps, please contact us immediately to discuss.
In Closing The further development and success of the Rama Sita Sanctuary requires immediate funding and we are most gratefully receiving donations by individuals or groups that either wish to be personally involved or simply want to support this valuable humanitarian cause.

Testimonials Christopher H., USA Ten years ago I started having a series of profound spiritual awakenings for which I had no proper reference point, cultural container, or teacher to help guide me through. As a result, my body system was completely unequipped to handle the energies moving through me, and they quickly manifested as mental/emotional dysfunction that was diagnosed by western mental health doctors as severe bipolar disorder. My life devolved into utter chaos, and I spent many years and huge sums of money trying virtually every therapy and healing modality known to man. Most had no effect; some made me considerably worse. Eventually I lost everything, including the will to live. But by the grace of God, I was given enough resources to come to Bali, and was introduced to Om Rama. I began attending Satsang and private healing sessions, and within two weeks I had received more profound healing than every other previous therapy combined. For the first time in years, my mind is no longer my relentless torture master. I have recovered an inner peace and wholeness that I had given up any hope of finding. The pure Source energy that Om Rama embodies is, I believe, the medicine that is needed by so many who are in spiritual crisis. I am a living testament to that. My prayer is that many, many more "helpless" cases like myself would be so blessed to receive the gift of the divine healing that Om Rama transmits. Krisna B., Norway Om Rama, being the most authentic Satsang teacher I have ever come across, will tell you things just as they are, direct, no fluff, no spiritual good looking makeup. Many find this hard to take, but if you are sincere about being True and living for that, there is no one better to be your teacher and reference point. Knowing truth means nothing if you are not actually Being that which you know. Om Rama teaches you how to BE true a very rare privilege among the vast array of self-proclaimed teachers and gurus these days. This path is not for the faint of heart, it is for those serious and dedicated to living AS truth. Marie G., France Satsang with Om Rama is authentic, pure, profoundly deep and beautiful. I wish everybody could perceive it with my eyes, connected to the soul/heart.
Saeed K., Canada My first meeting with Om Rama was of Oneness, sharing profound humanity and beyond. I often find myself feeling so humbled by the gentleness and respect I receive from such a Master. I feel seen on many levels. He is both my mirror of the goodness that I am and the very subtle forms of identification and pride that are still there. In Satsang he is With me and holds me As and With God consciousness skillfully taking me to the next level of Knowing and Being. Not as another satori/enlightenment experience that comes and goes but as unquestionable unshakeable integrated Beingness. Over the years I have met so many spiritual masters. Few embody real Spiritual Authority the way Om Rama does. Dewi B., Australia My meeting with Om Rama and this Sanctuary saved my life. I had suffered from severe Bipolar Disorder ( on-going spiritual crisis ) for years and had completely given up hope. Here in Satsang with Om Rama, I finally found what I was looking for, a True Teacher who could bring me home. Devoting my life to the Sanctuary and this humanitarian cause not only is my path home, but also my way of giving back for the sheer grace bestowed upon me. Arian H., Canada When I thought there was no hope, the universe brought Om Rama into my life. Upon my first meeting with Om Rama, I had a deep inner knowing that true soul healing was possible. Following two near death experiences, I had major awakenings. This spiralled my being into the void, where I struggled with confusion and my existence for a three year period. Not knowing how to navigate this, I delved into both aspects of the conventional and preventative healing practices. The surrounding environment of psychiatrists, doctors and western philosophy, provided me only with diagnoses of post traumatic stress disorder. I realized that my path required me to have a direct reference and guide through my crisis and awakening. Within 3 weeks of being here in Bali with Om Rama, I have no words for what has occurred. Om Rama is a powerful soul healer, and has given me profound understandings, humility and generosity. Om Rama is fully embodying God consciousness. His beautiful presence and teachings of the now, have allowed me to further relax into my true self, and with patience, and faith, I know I will be able to embody my natural self as well. Radha B., Poland Om Rama is everything I was looking for for many years - Authentic Teacher and Selfless Human Being embodying God consciousness. Being able to sit in His presence is my highest privilege and it reveals to me many things I was not able to see on my own. I continue to devote myself to Truth by recognizing the gift I am being given every day and staying committed to it.
