Norwood Paramdham, locally known as Kainth Wali Kothi, is a significant religious and social site located on Bakrota Hill in Dalhousie, Himachal Pradesh. Situated just 5 km away from Gandhi Chowk, this beautiful house holds great importance for its association with Swami Satyanand, a revered spiritual and religious guru.
Swami Satyanand, during his stay in Dalhousie, resided in Norwood Paramdham and used this house for meditation and spiritual practices. It is believed that he undertook a month-long fast here before attaining enlightenment. Inspired by the serene and spiritual atmosphere of the place, Swami Satyanand named it ‘Tapo Bhoomi,’ meaning ‘Pure Land.’ It was in this house that he authored numerous religious books that continue to inspire spiritual seekers.
Norwood Paramdham is surrounded by majestic deodar trees, adding to its serene ambiance. Today, the followers of Swami Satyanand, led by Bhagat Hans Raj Ji, organize regular satsangs (spiritual gatherings) at this location. These satsangs attract a large number of devotees and spiritual seekers who come to experience the tranquility and seek spiritual guidance.
The place is revered by devotees and holds a special significance as the site where Swami Satyanand took his last breath. Since then, it has been referred to as Param Dham, symbolizing its sacred status.
Visitors to Norwood Paramdham can enjoy the scenic surroundings, immerse themselves in the peaceful atmosphere, and participate in the satsangs to deepen their spiritual connection. The house stands as a tribute to the teachings and spiritual legacy of Swami Satyanand.
