'Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man'
- Swami Vivekanand

His one phrase sums up the entire vision, mission and philosophy behind the establishment of Vishwashanti Gurukul, an IB World School. MAEER MIT's is known for imparting value based education from KG to PG for more than two decades. Modernization, high-end technological advances and intellectual progress in these years, unfortunately, have not contributed to the building of a great character.

We shoulder the responsibility to mould the future by training the younger generation. This, we strongly feel is the era to revive the age-old Guru Shishya Parampara for the sake of the younger generation, the Global Citizens of tomorrow. With the world coming closer and closer to the concept of a Global Village, the advent and advancement of technology has only increased the pace. An effort has to be made to make the youngsters aware of their ancient Indian culture and the deep rooted ethos of the holy soil of our country. The Gurukul system would be the perfect technique to blend the modern technological advancements and the ancient Indian culture to create a new genre of winning personalities.

This age-old education system of ancient India develops an emotional, intellectual and spiritual bond between the Guru and the Shishya. The Guru takes the Shishya from the darkness of ignorance towards the enlightenment of knowledge. He guides the shishya not only to pursue knowledge, but also to build a character.

Today what we desperately need is not more advanced technology but men and women of strong character self disciplined and capable of being global citizens who can make the utmost utilization of technology for the benefit of the mankind.

Let's not forget that the nation is always built by the disciplined, cultured, devoted and educated men with full faith in the self and the nation. This faith and discipline can be best imbibed in the children at tender ages which will compel them to concentrate on character building and develop a sense of cross cultural tolerance, co-operation and harmony.

Vishwashanti Gurukul, an IB World School is committed to these ideals with its faith in incorporating all such qualities in its students to make them physically strong, mentally alert and spiritually elevated.
