Fee:

Spiritual Knowledge is a pursuit in itself and not linked to remuneration. In consonance with this spirit, there is no fee for this programme.

However all welfare programs of the Ashram are made possible by the generous support and contributions from individuals who believe in such benevolent activities. Ashrams exist solely for ensuring welfare and cohesion of the society. Of all the various societal-welfare activities, conducted by Narayanashrama Tapovanam, under the guidance of Swami Bhoomananda Tirtha, the primary focus is “dissemination of spiritual knowledge”. 

What is expected of the participants throughout the program?

• The primary requirement is to be mentally attuned to absorb and imbibe the knowledge to the fullest extent possible for your own transformation. This will happen only with an open mind, receptivity, attentiveness and self-effort.
• It is mandatory that the participant will wholeheartedly engage in all the sessions and activities planned during this programme, without any break.

• Participants must be seriously committed to participate in the course for the entire period. 
• The program is designed for intensive absorption of Upanishadic knowledge in a sublime atmosphere. Attentiveness to the teachings, punctuality to the class schedule, sensitivity to others and an open mindset is expected.
• Participants are advised to refrain from the use of laptops, mobile phones and internet and to restrict communication with family/workplace only in unavoidable circumstances. We advise limiting communication to once per week.  This is an intensive retreat and the personal transformation of participants will be maximized by a full and committed immersion.
• Simple vegetarian food will be provided and participants must remain vegetarian throughout the course.
