As a couple we arranged this cooking course in Pushkar and it was so lovely! Deepa is a very sweet woman who teaches wonderfully and with care. Her English is very good and her cooking even better! We made dhal, gobi curry and brown chapatis, which she arranged specially due to an allergy, and for which we are very grateful. Couldn’t recommend this class more. Make sure to come the day before to secure a time.

On most of my travels I like to do a Cookingclass to learn more about the local herbs and spices. In this class we were showed all the herbs & spices by name and how to use. Also the explanation of difference in the hot spices and the other? They won't mix those two different kinds... Important to know, right? We started by making some Massala chai, always a good start! We got to make several dishes from curry to biryani and some nan and chapati. I loved the experience again. From every lesson I learn so much! Thank you!

First of all I want to say a thousand thanks to Swamiji for this beautiful journey. I did a 200 YTR course in Pushkar. Also I would have liked to be in a more natural setting but this city is very beautiful and resonates with my bohemian soul. So it is really good that you can choose between Pushkar and Rishikesh. As Swamiji says: “Walk in as a body, go out as a soul!” Yoga is for everyone, especially for those who ask themselves who they are and what is their purpose in this life. When I came here, I was already on a spiritual path and I knew that I was finally on the right path, but still some old patterns were coming up and I started asking myself questions about certain topics and here I was assured that I was on the right track. Everything happens for a reason! The Western world has given many people a false or misleading understanding of yoga. Raja Yoga also known as Ashtanga yoga, teaches us that yoga is a spiritual journey that accompanies you daily. Swamiji’s theory lessons and philosophy are very enlightening. For years, I have known that when I go to study yoga in depth, I want to choose a teacher who talks about where yoga started - its basics and purpose. Yoga temple is one of the most beautiful buildings in the city and the food was wonderful, I will definitely miss these flavours. And during the winter at Pushkar I recommend that you pack warm clothes as it can get very cold here. And on wedding season it gets really noisy there so be ready to concentrate even more. There were only three of us this time and it is really great that Swamiji accepts max 8 people so the teaching is very individual. Finally, if you want to change your lifestyle a little and grow as a soul, come to the Swamiji. I am very grateful and I am certainly more courageous and I believe in myself more than before, everything is possible! I am delighted with my spiritual name as well which will surely send me throughout my life! Thank you Swamiji for enlightening the path!

An excellent collection of beautiful paintings and intricate carvings to buy or just to admire. Located just off Sadar Bazaar and away from the main hustle and bustle of Pushkar's main drag. Products here are superb quality and sold at very reasonable prices. Art workshops and painting classes are also available from 1:30 pm till 9pm daily. Prior booking is advised.

I booked an Ayurvedic massage just because of the amazing feedbacks I’ve read on Tripadvisor. I left the craziness of the came fair atmosphere here in Pushkar looking for a moment of peace and silence. Arriving close to Deepak’s place I noticed a switch: no chaos, everything was quite and calm. He was waiting outside, welcoming me to his place. We talked few minutes and then he started the massage... he feels the body and the energy of the person and work with it.. the massage has been like HEAVEN! But what is amazing, and what makes this man a true listener of the subtle messages of the body through the hands is that he gave all the advices that I knew I should follow for my health, he told me things that doctors said to me during years and that he felt during the massage! It’s not a simple massage, trust me! He also gave me advices about what to eat and what to avoid and so much more! If you’re in Pushkar you can’t skip this chance to take care of yourself! Thanks Deepak :)
