Brahmananda Saraswati Foundation

We provide education to rural village students in India to train them for a career in the treasured and ancient profession known as Vedic Pandits. Our students come from rural areas where few opportunities exist. They are enrolled in the accredited Maharishi Mahesh Yogi Vedic Vishwavidyalaya (University) and study a curriculum in Maharishi Vedic Science. We provide a high quality of life for the Maharishi Vedic Pandits during their education and professional careers. Our central campus operates a large organic farm growing high quality organic food such as dhals, grains and vegetables. We also have an organic cow milk dairy and smaller fruit orchards. To enrich the environment of our campuses we have planted thousands of shade trees that are indigenous to India. We created beautiful recreational gardens for the Maharishi Vedic Pandits. We use solar power for all hot water.
