History
A historic site with a unique spiritual and cultural heritage
Founding
The camp was originally established by A.K. Mozumdar, an Indian spiritual leader and philosopher, in the early 20th century. Mozumdar was one of the first South Asian individuals to be granted U.S. citizenship, and he dedicated his life to teaching about universal spirituality and the unity of all religions.
Notable Structures
Temple of Christ: A symbolic structure representing Mozumdar's teachings, emphasizing the unity of all spiritual paths and the presence of divinity within each person.
Pillars of God: This outdoor amphitheater features large stone pillars and serves as a space for spiritual gatherings, ceremonies, and events. It reflects Mozumdar's vision of a place where people could come together in harmony, regardless of their religious background.
Mozumdar Today
Over time, Camp Mozumdar became a retreat for those seeking spiritual growth and connection with nature. However, many of the structures have fallen into disrepair, necessitating efforts to restore and preserve the camp for future generations.The current restoration efforts are focused on revitalizing these historic structures and the surrounding facilities to create a sustainable retreat that continues to welcome people from all walks of life.
