Charity Work
The Beas ashram, known simply as "the Dera," maintains a free kitchen, langar (as well as canteens and snack bars at a nominal price).
Three charitable hospitals were built and are run by RSSB. The Beas Hospital, Sikanderpur Hospital, and Bhota Hospital provide free medical care for the surrounding rural community and aid the needy. Services include free accommodation for relatives of patients. In the past, the Society also ran an annual eye surgery clinic at the Dera.
RSSB has also helped in relief efforts for victims of natural disasters.
