Madhuban is the place of Godly experiences.

In the Sakar days (till 1969), much of the places where rocks and jungle. But now it has been transformed into residence and beautiful gardens. The below is a picture of Tapasya Dham, located in Shantivan, Mount Abu (where Brahman souls around the world gathers for deep meditation (Yog / penance).
As you may know, the Madhuban (forest of honey) is the central place for all brahmins (BKs), the Tapasya bhumi (place of penance) and it is the highest hermitage (ashram). Many of us, since we came in Gyaan (since our spiritual birth) have come and visited Mount Abu. But for those who just came (new students), and wish to know the direction or procedure to come visit OR stay in madhuban for a short time or to surrender in yagya (permanent), here are the following points to be noted:

3. Individual and with family
If someone wish to come on their own date, they can also come. They need a letter written by their regional centre (with their name and details) saying that the brother or sister is a BK (in Gyan) since this many months or years, and have been living with purity and is regular in attending the Murli classes held at that centre.
NOTE: You will require this letter if you wish to stay in madhuban as an individual.
If you could not arrange for such a letter, still you can enter the Mount Abu campus as a visitor. For more information, please reach the information desk (reception) at Pandav Bhawan.

Requirements for a Long Stay (or Permanent)
1. You must have become a regular Godly student and are a follower of all principles and guidelines set according to the shrimat of murli. You should be in Gyaan for at least 5 years.
NOTE: Main day to day life principles that we follow includes: Amritvela meditation, morning Murli class (or listen/reading Murli at home), eating Sattvik food ( clean, simple made food without onion/garlic ), evening Yog (meditation) and giving Sakash to the world souls (refer: What is Sakash?)
( The teacher-in-charge of your local BK centre will write this in the letter that you will bring to Mount Abu )
2. Being a Godly student, you would be listening or reading the murli regularly via any means (going to a local centre, via internet, PMTV, etc.). Murli of beloved Supreme father (Shiv baba) is food for the soul that is the source of spiritual energy and inspirations for Purusharth (self upliftment) and world service. (Refer source: What is Murli?)
3. You took a vow of purity in this last birth. Purity is our main subject and is the MUST requirement of anyone who wishes to stay in Madhuban for long time or to Surrender in yagya permanent. It is the main quality of a brahman soul, hence if you wish to stay in Madhuban (garden of God), then you must be living a life with complete celibacy in terms of the shrimat given by Shiv baba to us.
✪ All above are requirements to describe yourself as a godly student. You are welcome to come and experience a 'divine' atmosphere which connects one to his inner self.
