Vision
Bharat was conquered and colonized by many foreign powers over the centuries. These foreigners were at once filled with awe, admiration, jealousy, envy and hatred when they encountered our great civilization. They could not believe how noble and advanced we were. They worked hard over the centuries to systematically break and distort our culture. As a result, we are now legally and geographically Indian but not culturally Indian.
Sanskritishaala has now set out to create Cultural Indians or make us culturally Indian. We will teach Indian culture to Indians and make them proud of their own culture. We will make them practicing cultural Indians fully familiar with all key aspects of Sanathani culture.
Our 3-step process –
Reconnect: First we need to reconnect with our ancient culture, history, customs, rituals, stories and traditions. Soak in all that fully. Know and experience the past.
Re-imagine: Understand the difference between the ground realities of the past and those of the present. Understand the societal and civilizational design of the past and the purpose of the various festivals, rituals, customs and traditions. What is their purpose? How can we adapt our traditions to be relevant in the present times? Are there any gaps? How can we fill those gaps?
Reinvent: Eventually, we have to go back to the first principles and reinvent our culture and reinvigorate our civilization. New festivals, new rituals, new traditions – same purpose, new design. We need to do this continuously to survive and thrive.
