Asirvanam Benedictine retreat centre is one of the oldest retreat centres in Bangalore. When we came to Kengeri in 1957 many people requested us to have a retreat house so that they could come and stay with monks and pray. And so we started a small retreat house to accommodate twenty persons. This was the humble beginning of Asirvanam Benedictine Retreat Centre. Later we built new buildings with well furnished rooms.
St Benedict’s Academy is a Roman Catholic Benedictine school run by the monks of Asirvanam Benedictine Monastery. It has its roots in the values of the Gospel of Christ and the more than 1500 year old Benedictine tradition of schooling.St Benedict’s Academy entertains students of all religions and honors the dignity of every student as a child of God, and strives to nurture the talents of each individual for service and leadership in their own community and in the larger world.
We produce a publication aimed at promoting the spirituality of St. Benedict and fostering the scholarly endeavors of monks. Our books can be found at the bookstall within monasteries.
