Recognizing the challenges and possibilities of the modern age, and inorder to carry out these five great duties – (Pancha Maha Karthavyas)in a scientific and systematic manner, Aarsha Vidya Samajam (AVS) was established on 8 July 1999 by Sadgurudev Acharyasri Manoj Ji Maharaj. It is a spiritual, philosophical, educational, cultural, and renaissance movement dedicated to fulfilling this great mission entrusted by Sri Parameshwara and the Aarsha Guru Paramparas – \u201cKrinvantho Vishwamaryam\u201d (make humanity and the world noble).<\/p>

AVS aims to fulfill this mission in two ways: Bhavatmakam and Samrakshanatmakam.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Bhavatmakam:-<\/strong><\/div>
Promotion of the true Sanatana Dharma and the benefits of that divine science throughout the world \u2014 such as complete health, holistic personality development, human evolution, total success in life, the creation of an ideal society, and the complete removal of all sufferings and sorrows.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
Samrakshanatmakam:-<\/strong><\/div>
Liberation of the people from six types of demonic brainwashing forces that our society faces today.<\/div>
To achieve these goals, he has designed a unique organizational framework called the Ten-Level Action Plan (Dashathala Pravarthana Paddhathi)..<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

To simplify – the activities of Aarsha Vidya Samajam function on three levels.<\/strong><\/p>

1) Intervention, Recovery & Rehabilitation<\/div>
(Immediate Rescue Programme \/ Rescue Operation)<\/div>
This is an Emergency intervention and rescue initiative aimed at bringing back those who, from a young age, have been influenced in many ways by six kinds of brainwashing forces, causing them to act against themselves, their families, society, the nation, and the world. Aarsha Vidya Samajam carries out this work through the Sudarshanam De-radicalization Councelling Programme.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
De-radicalization counseling programmes with the strength of clear ideas and right understanding – capable of guiding anyone to the right path, provided they possess three qualities: common sense, willingness for discussion, and the intellectual honesty to accept the truth when realized. Aarsha Vidya Samajam proudly upholds a history of transforming not only those who were radicalized, but even those who had become missionary advocates of destructive forces, into dedicated Pracharaks of Sanatana Dharma.<\/div>
Aacharya Sree Manoj Ji is a noble soul who has guided tens of thousands away from misleading and anti-national ideologies, including forced and deceptive religious conversion, and led them towards the right path.<\/div><\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
Through his guidance, more than 8,500 young men and women who had been influenced by ignorance, misinformation, and brainwashing into anti-national thinking have already returned back to Sanatana Dharma. Among them, around one thousand individuals gained the strength to resist radicalization. Nearly one hundred people came forward courageously to share their experiences publicly. More than twenty became active Pracharaks and Pracharikas of Sanatana Dharma, and four individuals even authored books narrating their journeys and realizations.<\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

2) Awareness and Prevention (PREVENTION)<\/div>
This field of activity focuses on preventing people from falling into harmful ideologies. By drawing attention to philosophy, history, and present-day realities, this mission works to remove ignorance \u201cPramadam\u201d which has affected the society. Through systematic awareness programmes and proper guidance to lakhs of people we have been able to stop the radicalization. We are providing training to various organizations in deradicalization counseling.<\/div>
\u00a0<\/div>
3) Root-Level Solution (Permanent Programme)<\/div>
For the permanent resolution of problems through identifying and addressing their root causes – and also to achieve the aim \u201cLoka Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu\u201d AVS has designed four unique streams of activity.<\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
