Kochrab Ashram was the first ashram established by Mahatma Gandhi in India. It was founded on May 25, 1915, in the Kochrab area near Ahmedabad, Gujarat. The Kochrab Ashram was Gandhi's first attempt at creating a self-sustained community based on his principles of truth (satya), non-violence (ahimsa), and self-reliance. Later, Gandhi moved the ashram to Sabarmati in 1917, which became more well-known as the Sabarmati Ashram.
