Information about SwaSwara

‘Swa’ in Sanskrit means ‘the self ‘‘Swara’ refers to sound.
We live, unaware of the inner sound of our being, drowned out as it is by the din of daily life. Only when everything else quiets down and we are at peace can we hear it. That's why we've made sure, that the shouts of the modern world die down to whispers, at SwaSwara.
Gokarna…meaning ‘cow’s ear’ is an ancient village full of lore, a famous Shiva temple, with two main streets lined by shops and traditional tile roofed brick houses. A happy mix of traditional Brahmin communities, a bunch of modern day nuclear families and a large tourist population that seeks the sun, the sands and the sea here.
A little away from the village, SwaSwara lies on 26 acres of rolling hills and gardens adorned by flowers, shrubs and spices that give each other company on a carpet of green lawns, lined with serene coconut palms. Beyond the lawns is a vegetable garden bursting with the greens of the season and paddy fields that nourish those who stay at SwaSwara.

Accommodation at SwaSwara

And within this spiritually enlightened and sensitive environment nestle 24 villas inspired by the homesteads, tradition and craft of the Uttara Kannada region of Karnataka.
There is nothing here, to take away from what is natural. The architecture respects the terrain, the climate and the natural offerings of the land. The colors of the earth and the forests are what define living spaces here. Those who created this haven for the soul saw beauty in unevenness. In the deeper philosophy that perfection isn’t always about hiding flaws. It’s about revealing the serendipity in jaggedness.
We believe SwaSwara is poetry is stone, tinted in a passionate colour symbolizing the energy of mother earth. Offset by the purity of white. We also believe that we haven’t created anything new. But merely received what was already bestowed on SwaSwara and created a pathway to Nirvana.

Ayurveda & Yoga at SwaSwara

The ancient Indian science of Ayurveda is one of the most revered branches of medicine, across the world. Healing through a tradition handed down from the sages, 5000 years ago.
Ayurveda is completely unique in its philosophy, approach and treatment methodology. While allopathy works on the basis of identifiable symptoms and has side effects, Ayurveda works on the basis of the balance of your bio energies or ‘doshas’ as they are called .It has no side effects.
Contrary to popular perception, Ayurveda is not merely a cosmetic or therapeutic practice. It is a well established science and a highly effective branch of medicine that goes beyond massages and rejuvenation. Ayurveda can treat serious ailments and conditions through a very detailed study of your body and its needs.
