Vatsyayana – A Himalayan Boutique Resort invites you to participate and share our vision of providing couples with a conducive environment to explore facets of their relationship hitherto unbeknown, and to delve deeper into myriad links that tie them together as one.

HOW DO WE CREATE NOVEL BONDS AT VATSYAYANA?

Rang Ullas: Rang is the spiritual power of healing the mind through the vibrancy of colors, woven through the fabric of life and love, & Ullas is the spontaneous expression of pure joy, of unbridled passion that manifests pure emotions without reason.

Rang Ullaas is this natural desire, intertwined through this beautiful amalgamation of color and expression.

The playfulness of intimacy and the innocence of relationships make this play with colors flirtatious, fun & frolic.

At Kriya – The Spa, with our ancient understanding of body chakras, the holistic application of colors is used, either directly or through hues and patterns, to rebalance and stimulate the latent energy of our human body.
