The campus, comprising a small house with a meditation room and a lush green garden, is located in Satindra Palli, an enclave of freedom fighters. It has the unique distinction of being the only place in Calcutta, other than Barrackpore, that houses the ashes of Gandhiji.

The land and house were gifted to Sri Aurobindo Institute of Culture by an eminent freedom fighter Shrimati Shantisudha Ghosh.

Shrimati Ghosh was initially unsure who to gift the property to. She received an indication, and considered it to be the Divine's intervention, when she received a receipt for an offering of Rs.5 from Dyumanbhai of Sri Aurobindo Ashram, Pondicherry, when she had not made any such offering.

On 15.August.1989, Shantisudha Ghosh. came to Lakshmi's House and formally made an offering of the property.

Initially, activities related to women empowerment were carried out in the Satindra Palli campus. Sarees, gamchhas and napkins have been supplied to the Ashram at Pondicherry from this establishment's own weaving machine.

Later, Arun Nursery School's second campus was run from this premises for several years.
