Shree Bharathi Gurukula Vishwa Vidyalaya TAKSHASHILA REBORN !
 

  Vision : Thousands of years ago at Takshashila in India (near the modern day Peshawar), there existed a University of world repute. It was noted for the study of science, arts and the Vedas. It attracted students from not only distant parts of India but also from Greece and Central Asia. Out of its portals walked intellectual giants like Panini, Sushrutha and Chanakya.It is the dream of our Swamiji to restore to our motherland its past glory as the land of light and knowledge by establishing a unique university named Shree Bharathi Gurukula Vishwa Vidyalaya on the lines of Takshashila, on the banks of Sharavathi in Hosanagara. It will impart Gurukula system of education amidst the benevolent influence of nature, where the seeker of knowledge will find : “books in running brooks, sermons in stones and good in everything”.The most ambitious of the educational projects of the Shree Math, this centre of learning will promote the study of ancient “Vidyas” and “Kalas”. Among the Vidyas, focus will be on the study of the four Vedas and also on the Upavedas like Ayurveda, Arthashastra and Ghandarvaveda (music, dance, etc.) and Vedangas like Vyakarna, Jyothishya etc. Other disciplines like Vaasthu, Aagama, Shilpa, Darshanas etc., will also be studied. The University will function as a research centre for the study and propagation of ancient knowledge enshrined in the Indian tradition and culture.      

 The scene at present :Today, Shree Bharathi Gurukula Vishwa Vidyalaya operates from a campus set in a sprawling area, which has a backdrop of hills, winding streams and lush green forests.The University has already launched on its mission and as a first step, Shree Bharathi Gurukula, a Vedic school for boys was founded a few years ago and has been running successfully. This year, Shreemaatha Gurukula, a special residential school for girls has been established with the objective of moulding young girls into women, who will epitomize the best in Indian womanhood. Shree Bharathi Pathradhaama, is a project that collects and preserves palm-leaf manuscripts which are a treasure house of ancient wisdom. This centre also houses books on ancient knowledge.Bharathi Dhaama, a research centre on art and culture houses a rare collection of manuscripts and titles some of which have been donated to Shree Math by the Shree Ramanath Pundith Research Centre, Pune.The ambitious project needs the support of the entire community of intellectuals, disciples and philanthropists to accomplish its mission.
