RISHI VAN ASHRAM which is owned & managed by RISHI VANA TRUST is one of the places created by Pujya Guruji Rishi Prabhakar Ji in 1985 for Retreats of Science of Silence Yoga, Advance Meditation Courses - Silent Sadhana Shibir, Bhav Samadhi Tranings and other advanced residential programmes. This serene spot was chosen by Pujya Guruji after experiencing tranquility & high vibrations the credit of which goes to its location sight at the foothills of Gorakhgadh and Macchindragadh of Sahyadri mountain series in Maharashtra. People experience unique serenity by virtue of their presence in this uniquely divine Ashram, Which is blessed by Gorakhnath & Macchindranath, two seges of Navanath, who are believed to have done their Sadhana here thousands of years back.
The ashram is located in Dehari village at the foot of these hills, in the Murbad Taluka in Thane District in Maharashra. It is 100 Km from Bandra, 75 Km from Thane, 50 Km from Kalyan, 25 Km from Murbad & 15 Km from Mhasa.
Gorakhgadh is also a famous tourist destination, identified by the Government of Maharashtra for further development. It is a popular destination for all trekkers not only from Mumbai & Maharashtra but also from all over India. This hill has rock cut water cisterns near the cave. The cave is spacious and has square pillars. There is a small Mahadev temple at the top. The Ahupe Ghat and Siddhagad can be seen from the top. These two Sahyadri peaks are a mountaineer’s delight and are often-visited sites for trekking enthusiasts. Some of the camps conducted at Rishi Vana Ashram include a brief trek up the Gorakh Mountains and long walks around.
Rishi Van Ashram also has the advantage of great tree cover and a stream flowing through the Ashram area.
Being the first SSY Ashram founded by Pujya Guruji shri Rishi Prabhakar, this Ashram has a special significance. It was Bhagwan Visweswariah’s (Guruji’s Guru) wish that his mortal remains be consecrated at the first Ashram which would be started by His dearest disciple – Guruji shri Rishi Prabhakar.
Accordingly, Bhagwan’s Visweswariah’s Samadhi was erected at the Guru Mandir in the Ashram. Puja and Aradhana are performed annually at the Samadhi every year on the 2nd Sunday of March & also on Guru Poornima.
To create an enlightened world, where individuals live joyfully together in surrenderfulness.<
"Everybody has a vision, but not a collective one.
It is Guru, Who brings people together to follow a collective vision." –Guruji
Guruji Says : My life is dedicated to providing this training of the wise men in the science and art of non-doing, of becoming whole by discovering higher and higher levels of silence (called Samadhis) within.
I am fortunate to be the one to whom this secret was revealed. I humbly offer this miraculous knowledge that cures not only diseases of the body such as Asthma, Diabetes and even Cancer but also diseases of the society such as global pollution and deforestation, terrorism, isolation and global inequities.

Pledge Given By Pujya Guruji
“We have a great task ahead of us: the commitments we have to our own lives and to the lives of everyone around us. This can only be accomplished not by focusing on the task, but by focusing on ourselves – to allow ourselves to be truly happy and usable.
People can only use usable material. We don’t ask them to use our teachings or us. We shall allow ourselves to be used by truly being ourselves and enjoying each moment as if it was the last. We pledge to give nothing but our best. This includes our love, our possessions, our word, our honour, our citizenship and ourselves.
We do not do this to elevate ourselves above others or to belittle ourselves. We do this, recognising that it is the opportunity to discover the best in us.
My only truly personal gain is discovering the best in me, to discover my ability to be with everyone and everything around me. This is my quest, my path, my goal. I represent life.
No one is higher or lower than me. No one is more valuable than another. I will not make anyone my slave, nor will I submit myself as a slave to anyone. In true partnership, I shall discover myself in you, in everyone. This is my pledge. This is my pledge.
"With Guru, The whole world is open to you and
your heart is open to love and to be loved." - Guruji
Purpose
Many people go about life depressed, feeling that they have not been given special talents and privileges by the creator at their birth. They do not know that every individual is potentially great and inherently has all the talents. For example, everyone has the potential to be somebody great — a reformer, a dancer, a singer, a poet, a sportsman, an engineer or a doctor.
What is lacking, apparently, is the method by which all the hidden strengths can be unfolded. There are two basic traits that all great people possess: the first is the ever-growing love for people around them; the second is the unwavering commitment towards contributing something to the world.
Once these two qualities are unfolded in the individual, he or she will naturally excel in life. The person’s intellectual sharpness, capacity of the mind to comprehend and the physical ability to perform will all unfold naturally and effortlessly. For example, Gandhiji was a sickly average student who became an astute politician with tremendous capacity to comprehend the whole world. He became a strong person physically too.
The leadership trainings offered by SSY are oriented to explore this true intellectual, emotional, mental and physical potential in each individual and to build the fabric of greatness in this world.
"The total power of any corporation depends on how many people are there to support the vision of the organization." –Guruji
