Our Social Impact
Rationale
- Our considered view is that all human problems are due to incorrect & incomplete individual & collective human understanding.
- Hence, the long term, comprehensive solution to all human problems is the completion in human understanding, via 'Education for Consciousness Development' in all humankind, leading to awakening (jagriti).
General Public Awareness
- As of 2022, more than 1 lac people have attended the 7 day introductory sessions and have benefitted from greater clarity in their living. They have encouraging results to share.
- About 1000 people are currently in deep-study of the Darshan/Philosophy
- This 'discovery' fundamentally alters our understanding of who we are as humans and what we do.
- Facilitators do not 'charge' for the 'teaching'. This is not a source of our 'livelihood'.
