Sandipani Vidyaniketan

Sandipani Vidyaniketan runs a Rishikul, a system inspired by ancient Rishis and based on the close relationship between the Guru and the Shishya. The students are called Rishikumars and are taught the essential values of hard work, restraint and discipline in ‘Tapovan’ style, in an open and natural environment, away from urban areas. At Rishikul, subjects from Grade VIII to MA level (post-graduation) include Sanskrit with emphasis on Grammar, Study of Scriptures, Astrology, Philosophy and Music. Students are also taught English and Computers. Graduates are called `Shastris` and post-graduates `Acharyas`. Admissions to the Rishikul is totally free of charge. The Trust operates with the help of contributions coming from people supporting the Vidyaniketan and admissions are open from class 8. The support provided through this contribution will help in providing necessities for one Rishikumar`s education studying at Sandipani Rishikul such as school fees, uniform, school supplies, food and accommodation for one year. This will also help motivate parents, especially those who may be less fortunate, to send their child to school and gain Vedic knowledge. Sandipani Vidyaniketan`s motto is: Come for education, leave to serve society. Help us spread the messages of Sanatan Dharma by providing Vedic education to children in today`s times so that our values and culture remain alive.
