Vedas, the most ancient and comprehensive body of knowledge, have their origin in the primordial creator and have been received by humanity through our sages (Rishis). As the Rishis are the primary human links in the knowledge chain, the knowledge is Arsha (meaning ‘From the Rishis’). Incredibly, this unique body of knowledge (Vijnana), has been preserved in letter and spirit to this day due to the guru-sishya parampara (teacher-student lineage) kept alive at the traditional institutions of learning and culture called Gurukulams. Every student is resident in the Gurukulam for the entire duration of education.

Arsha Vijnana Gurukulam is a unique Gurukulam where traditional teaching goes on simultaneously in both Veda and Vedanta.
