For celebrations, Bhakti weekends and the evening events in the Baba Mandir (Hanuman Chalisa & Kirtan) without overnight stay no registration is required, but it helps the ashram with the preparations.

All contributions go towards the upkeep of both ashrams.

Overnight stays

On Bhakti weekends and celebrations it’s possible to stay overnight in ashram Brindavon. Overnight stays are also available after the evening events at the Baba Mandir, Hanuman Chalisa on Tuesdays, and Kirtan on Fridays. All rooms are multi-bed rooms (dharamsala), women and men separate.

Further information

Visiting the ashram

In India, it is considered a natural expression of respect not to turn one’s feet or back to the altar of a deity or the seat of the master. We ask visitors to the ashram to please enter the temple freshly showered and in appropriate, clean clothing - with shoulders and legs covered. During the stay in the ashram, clean clothing and personal hygiene are a matter of course.

Use of mobile phones and cameras

Visitors to the ashram are asked to switch off their mobile phones. There are lockers for valuables in the cloakroom. Taking photos is not allowed in either ashram.

If you would like a photo of the temple, please contact one of the caretakers.

Daily routine

An important basis of ashram life is the consistent daily routine. It begins early in the morning and includes set times for meals, karmayoga and evening events. This daily schedule serves as an inner practice and is binding for the chela living in the ashram, as well as for visitors to the ashram.
