Our
Mission

Our mission is to help parents raise modern kids with timeless, eternal knowledge rooted in ancient Vedic wisdom. We believe that mere school education is not enough to prepare them for the challenges life offers. Children should be equipped with life skills and practical knowledge while remaining grounded in Indian traditions.

Built with by Parents

We are group of parents who started thinking seriously about the future of our kids 7 years ago in this digital age full of distractions. School can only educate the kids academically. But education is beyond the classroom and a lifelong process. Kids learn through stories, games, experiments, and real life experiences.

While researching we found that the world is already gifted with the key to holistic child development in the form of Vedas and Upanishads. Panchkosha model from the Taitariya Upnishad describes this complete process.

The Panchkosha concept from the Taittiriya Upanishad and the principles of Bhartiya shikshan (traditional Indian education) offer profound insights into holistic child development. These ancient frameworks can be highly relevant in modern times, helping parents and educators raise well-rounded children and facilitate learning beyond the classroom. Here's how:

Understanding the Panchkosha Concept & Applying it in Modern Parenting and Education

The Panchkosha (five sheaths) model describes the human being as a multi-layered entity, encompassing physical, emotional, mental, intellectual, and spiritual dimensions. The five koshas are:

1. Annamaya Kosha (Physical Sheath) The body and its needs.
Need to teach children about the importance of physical health through yoga, sports, and nature exploration. This helps them develop a strong connection with their bodies and the environment. Encourage outdoor activities and limit screen time.
2. Pranamaya Kosha (Energy Sheath) Vital life force and energy
Activities like meditation, breathing exercises (pranayama), or mindfulness practices can help children understand and regulate their energy, fostering focus and resilience.
3. Manomaya Kosha (Mental Sheath) Emotions, thoughts, and feelings
Storytelling, art, music, and drama can help children explore and express their emotions, enhancing emotional intelligence.
4. Vijnanamaya Kosha (Intellectual Sheath) Intellect, wisdom, and discernment
Encourage children to ask questions and explore diverse subjects. Engage children in activities like debates or science experiments. Encourage them to read beyond textbooks and explore real-world applications of knowledge.
5. Anandamaya Kosha (Bliss Sheath) Inner joy, spirituality, and connection to the divine
Introduce them to nature, meditation, or community service. Teach them to find joy in simple things and cultivate a sense of purpose.
