“I too believed that India will awake again if anyone could love with all his heart the
people of the country – bereft of the grace of affluence, of blasted fortune, their
discretion totally lost, downtrodden, ever-starved, quarrelsome and envious. Then
only will India awake, when hundreds of large-hearted men and women, giving up all
desires of enjoying the luxuries of life, will long and exert themselves to their utmost,
for the well-being of the millions of their countrymen.”
~ Swami Vivekananda
T he great patriotic saint and cyclonic monk has given the alchemy of awakening of Bharat Mata to its
pristine glory of Jagatguru, and it is very pertinent and concise. Vivekananda Kendra Vidyalayas
Arunachal Pradesh Trust is running 24 Vidyalayas to materialize the vision of Swami Vivekananda. “Serve
Man Serve God” and “Man making and nation building” are the twin ideals we are working for. The
inspiration and aspiration we got from Mananeeya Eknanathji Ranade, the founder President of Vivekananda
Kendra had been distilled into the moolmantra: Know Bharat, love Bharat, Be Bharateeya and make
Bharatmata Jagatguru. Vast is our nation Bharat and gigantic is the task we are pledged to accomplish. We
have taken-up the challenge and Vivekananda Kendra Vidyalayas in Arunachal Pradesh are slogging to
meet the challenge. Academic excellence, congenial atmosphere and self-discipline are the areas, we, at
the Vivekananda Kendra Vidyalaya are striving to improve upon. There are attainments, achievements
and of course scores of success stories. The goal and the way are set. The alchemy of Swami Vivekananda
is working wonderfully. Our schools are becoming Shakti Peeth, drawing energy from the community
and empowering the various elements of community. The faith of the people and succor we get from
them have taken us from strength to strength to face the new challenges.

search of education because it is not their priority. That
V I V E K A N A N D A K E N D R A V I D YA L AYA S A R U N A C H A L P R A D E S H T R U S T
is the reason the masses remained illiterate for long. Illiteracy,
superstition, poverty and backwardness form a vicious circle.
Shall we remain grumbling over the fate ? No and never. Then
how to break the callous circle ? Education… Educating the
masses is the only way out. And for that expansion is must.
We have to go to hills and valleys, remote places and far flung
villages. Our Mentor has illustrated the goal and the way.
Vivekananda Kendra Vidyalayas in Arunachal Pradesh though
ever-increasing in number and every single Vidyalaya is
expanding with assorted man making activities we are yet to
reach the last segment. Some may come and invite us but
there are some waiting for us. They may not have even means
to access us. So, VKV must reach them with open arms. It is
a Challenge. And it is a challenge worth taking. The day the
forgotten lot is educated en mass, the world is bound to
behold Bharat Mata as Jagatguru.
