LETTER TO ALL GUESTS INTERESTED IN STAYING AT INTERNATIONAL SCHOLARS' HOME, SACAR

Warm greetings from SACAR!
We are very happy to welcome you to the International Scholars' Home at SACAR. In order to prepare for your comfortable stay at the Home, please read through this letter.
International Scholars' Home (ISH) is neither a hotel nor a guest house; it is indeed a Scholars' Home, which means YOUR Home for the duration of your stay here. This means that you may have both the necessary challenges and pleasures of being in your home!

Important Things to Remember
As you all know, the objective of SACAR as an institution is to encourage the study and research of integral and spiritual vision and works of Sri Aurobindo and the Mother. With that consideration, we take very seriously the sanctity of the space and environment where we pursue our works. Our hope is that the residents of the ISH will also share and honour this sentiment and help us preserve the serene and sacred environment of the campus.
We expect your cooperation in observing the following rules during your stay at International Scholars' Home.
1. The main gate of the Home opens at 5:00AM and closes at 10:30PM.
2. Smoking and alcohol consumption are strictly prohibited in the Home or anywhere on SACAR campus.

3. Please refrain from playing loud music or engaging in loud talk after a reasonable hour.
4. You are not permitted to take your meals to your room. Only snacks and fruits may be eaten inside the rooms.

6. You will be responsible for daily cleaning of your room. A broom and dustpan is provided in each room. A brush is also available in each bathroom for cleaning purposes. If you need anything else, please contact ISH staff for assistance.
7. Dustbins in the room are to be used only for dry waste. Garbage cans are placed in the corridor for throwing food-waste etc.
