DESCRIPTION :

The Indian society was at its cultural¸ social and political nadir when Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati was born in 1824. He grew up in an environment of political subjugation¸ where he witnessed extreme casteism¸ superstition¸ religious dogma and social oppression of women and marginalized sections of society.

He openly stood up against all the social evils such as discrimination on grounds of caste¸ creed¸ sex¸ economic status and social bigotry¸ male chauvinism and religious dominance of higher castes over the backward castes and classes. He fought for the rights of women and opened  Kanya Vidyalayas" to empower and enlighten them. Unfortunately¸ the task of social resurgence was too vast to be completed during his lifetime and when Maharishi attained Samadhi in 1883¸ the Indian society was only partially reformed¸ with the onus of completing this unfinished task falling on his followers.

Taking a stock of the ground realities of Indian society and the nature of the task undertaken by Maharishi¸ his followers decided to commemorate his life and works not by building lifeless statues¸ but by opening temples of learning - schools and colleges where all the values advocated by Maharishi would be inculcated in the children so that they could carry forward his message and work ceaselessly throughout their life to carry out the reforms suggested by him."
