Gurukulam
The concept of “Gurukulam” is a unique feature of the Indian system of education, where the all round
development of the student is taken care by the Guru, through his incessant
training, nurturing, observation, guidance and inspiration. Developing the
physical, mental, emotional, aesthetic, intellectual and spiritual aspects of
the human personality is the goal of Gurukulam system. Living with the Masters,
the students learn the principles of right living by imbibing strong personal,
familial, social, religious and spiritual value systems.
Samskrit and Vedic studies
The Vedas, Upanishads and innumerable ancient literature are the fountainhead
of knowledge. Samskrit, unquestionably one of the oldest languages and
grammatically and phonetically a perfect language, remains the epitome of
Indian culture and heritage. The vast Samskrit literature encompassing in
itself a variety of stories, mythologies and legends has always played a
pivotal role in instilling strong morals and ethical values in the young minds.
Hence, the revival of this ancient wisdom is an inevitable need of the hour.
“Recover the Vedanta, the Gita and the Yoga. Recover them not only in intellect or sentiment but in your lives. Live them and you will become strong, mighty, invincible and fearless.
Difficulty and impossibility will vanish from your vocabularies”.
– Maharishi Aurobindo
Keeping this in mind, VISHVA KSHEMA TRUST established SHREE PARASHARA GURUKULAM,
an educational institution, in June 2003, dedicated to educate students in the most essential aspects of Vedic learning,
Samskrit language and other ancient scriptures such as Srimad Ramayana, Srimad Bhagavat Gita and other traditional knowledge systems
coupled with modern education such as English, Mathematics, Science, Computers
etc. The students are also trained in art, yoga, meditation, music etc. to
ensure the all round development of human personality.
The proposed campus is designed to accommodate a maximum of 120 children in
future ranging from Standard VI to Post Graduate levels. Provision is also made
to accommodate another 60 persons, who enroll for various short term and long
term courses in Vedic and Samskrit studies, Ramayana, Bhagavd Gita, Yoga,
Meditation, and other traditional knowledge systems, under the project “VYASA”.
