Vision
We envision a world endowed with a wealth of knowledge and strength of discrimination(Viveka). We expect a system that is a healthy breeding ground for the sprouting, culturing, and dissemination of the whole gamut of knowledge in a wholesome and holistic manner for the well-being of humanity. We envision a human being empowered with healthy knowledge, which makes him an enabler and facilitator in the deep search and striving of every human being for that knowledge. We envision a system wherein there are an excellent interplay and exchange of ideas, thoughts, feelings, and actions which develop people empowered with noble character and wholesome value. They go out into the fields of effort to build a world of love, harmony, peace, and knowledge. They follow the path of Dharma and give a clear direction in every thought and human behavior.
