Batadrava Than is the first Than or the first institution set up by Srimanta Sankaradeva for propagation of Eka Sarana Nama Dharma founded by him. He also built the 'Monikut' together with Kirtanghar or Namghar and the 'Cari-Hati' (four clusters of quarters) for accommodation of his disciples. This full-fledged Than complex came up in 1509. Simhasana or Guru Asana (altar of God) was placed in the Monikut with the holy scripture 'Bhagavata' on it without any idol.
