Our Vision
Our country is metamorphosed into a glorious nation where holy Vedic chanting is heard in abundance at all places, Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high; Where knowledge is free; Where words come out from the depth of truth; Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection; and in short, where the golden age of Rama Rajyam is brought back into public as well as private lives of the people, where rites, rituals, ceremonies, festivals and yagnas are conducted as per vedic tenets bringing plenty and prosperity to all.
A world which has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls, but, which acknowledges and respects our holy scriptues and looks for spiritual guidance to our Bharatha Varsham And in the process love, peace, goodwill, harmony, universal brotherhood are created in mankind and the world becomes a paradise for all.
We seek, in the most humble manner, to contribute our mite to achieving the above dream, through preservation and propagation of vedic studies.
We invoke the blessings of Veda Mata, the great Acharyas to realise our vision.
