Vishnugupta VishwaVidyapeetham (VVV) is a unit of Dharmachakra Trust ®

Objectives

Even after 75 years of independence we are following the system of education devised by Macaulay. Countless are the Bharatiya streams of knowledge that have vanished completely due to lost identity of the sons of the soil.

Many knowledge streams have been enfeebled and exist only partially. Rest of them have lost their original forms. Lack of an efficient system of education and hostile environment is the root cause for this problem. There is no place in Bharat to study many Bharatiya knowledge streams! Few are taught, but not in entirety. Authentic and original texts are not studied in many cases; instead, their adaptations and modifications are studied.

Bharatiya fields of knowledge are complete when they are studied together, not in isolation; but the facility to learn them together under one roof is not available anywhere. Bharatiya culture and civilization, knowledge and art forms have a scientific foundation; but their systematic and in-depth research is not undertaken.

Present day scholars of shastras are not well-versed with modern day language, technology and science. Current system of education is not instilling knowledge and pride about Bharatiyata in modern day graduates.

Today‘s institutions impart education, but they don‘t have plans to instil allegiance. Learned people sans loyalty may not just be deadwoods, they may also become onerous and problematic!

Answer to all these worries haunting Bharata for centuries is in the rise of
Vishnugupta VishwaVidyapeetham (VVV)

To preserve Bharatiya knowledge, art, culture, traditions and to instill devotion to God and Guru, patriotism, self-reliance, self-defence and traditions-culture in future generations. Good citizens are thus developed for the society.

There is education in present-day Bharata, but there is no Bharata in present-day education!

If there is no Bharata in education, our nation would not remain as Bharata in the future! Our children will not remain as Bharatiyas! Vishnugupta VishwaVidyapeetham is rising as the solution to these worries. Vishnugupta VishwaVidyapeetham aims to provide education from nursery to Ph.D.

Sarvabhouma Gurukulam and Rajarajeshwari Gurukulam are already functioning as precursors to it.

As provided in the New National Education Policy

Vishnugupta VishwaVidyapeetham aims to be an example in implementing such positive aspects of the new national education policy.

Frontiers of the vast educational
kingdom of VVV are spread from
nursery till doctoral studies.

Facility of scholarships is
available for the needy

Process to obtain recognition from
the statutory bodies for proposed institutions are underway.

Added to the exemplary services to goumata, SriMatha also renders a unique service in the field of education.
