Namaste, we are Vidyakshetra, a Gurukula based out of Bangalore, Karnataka.
A warm welcome to our youtube channel. As a Gurukul in India, we have been working on the holistic education system that has been the foundation of Bharata. Our curriculum is built based on the Panchkosh theory of education and Bharatiya Jeevan Drishti. As they progress in their learning, all the 5 Koshas get nurtured & nourished. The Gurukulas had equipped us to live & face life with strength & ease. Unfortunately, we have lost all those values due to influences of long duration of foreign rulers. Our founder and Kulapati Sri Muneet Dhiman started this Gurukula with a vision of reviving the culture-rich education that built the foundation of Bhavya Bharat with co-founders Smt Preethi Dhiman and Sri Biswaksen Patra.
Currently, we are a strong community of 90+ families
We want more & more people to join our community in building this eco-system for our own future. Visit www.vidyakshetra.org for more information about us.
