In this modern age of science and technology, there is an urgent need for imparting a strong spiritual foundation focused around the meaning a purpose of human life to prevent rapid deterioration of mankind. Dr. Singh, the founding director of Bhaktivedanta Institue and a pioneer in science-spirituality dialogue, envisioned to have such programs regularly to provide a fertile ground for promoting the interface between science and spirituality. This program is a humble attempt in this direction.

The two-day winter school 2025 program  aims to help you pursue personal growth, health, spirituality, mindfulness, and more. We believe that the serene atmosphere of divinity in this holy place of Kumbhakonam will be advantageous to the participants and help them discover the true happiness of the soul.


By organizing such programs, we highlight the necessity of interaction between science and spirituality for holistic growth, especially among the younger generation. We have conducted this program for the past nine years at various holy places in south India like Melukote, Ahobilam, Tirupathi, Kanchipuram, Srivilliputhur, Srirangam, Srirangapatna etc.
