Sivagiri Mutt is a revered ashram and pilgrimage center located atop the Sivagiri hill in Varkala, Kerala, India. Founded by the great social reformer and sage Sree Narayana Guru, the ashram was established in 1904 and serves as the final resting place of the Guru. The architecture of the Mutt is simple and reflects the principles of the founder who promoted equality and social justice. The main attractions include the Guru's Samadhi (final resting place), a temple dedicated to Saraswathy (goddess of learning), and an annual pilgrimage event known as Sivagiri Pilgrimage during December 30 to January 1, which draws thousands of devotees. The serene environment of the Mutt against the backdrop of lush greenery provides a tranquil retreat for spiritual seekers. Visitors can explore the well-maintained gardens, participate in daily rituals, and learn about the Guru's teachings and philosophies. The Mutt also operates a school, a hospital, and a printing press, promoting education and social welfare.
