Our Vision and Mission
​Shankara Gurukulam is powered by an inspired team of commoners, lifelong learners, and scholars of both Vedic and contemporary subjects, all united by the vision to revive holistic learning rooted in ancient Vedic wisdom. Our mission is to nurture future acharyas (teachers and torchbearers) who will provide clarity and guidance, and who are dedicated to uplifting the nation through a comprehensive understanding of our Indic knowledge systems. Through this endeavor, we aim to re-establish Bharatha as a supreme land of knowledge and spiritual quest.
