For many years, Master Ishwar Ji dreamed of building a dera as a humble tribute to his own Master, Great Master Baba Sawan Singh Ji. Ishwar Ji designed the Wisconsin project to follow the methods used by the Great Master in India, with all work supported by donations, and all seekers offered the opportunity to perform seva for their beloved.
The facility will be located on the ISHA dera land in northern Wisconsin, atop a hill by the Chippewa River. The Meeting Hall will be 155 feet long and 109 feet wide, for a total of 16,800 square feet. Over 400 people will fit in the domed auditorium, and a commercial kitchen and dining hall will be capable of feeding all visitors. It will also contain a meeting room, a family room, office space, a quiet room, bathrooms, storage space, and a covered, outdoor-dining patio. Ishwar Ji recommended that ISHA utilize green building methods whenever possible, and to support the community by buying locally.
