MESSAGE

It gives me a great pleasure to learn about the Diamond jubilee celebra-
tions of Santhigiri Ashram founded by his Holiness NAVAJYOTHI SREE
KARUNAKARAGURU. The Ashram in its true tradition has made significant
contribution in bringing our ancient Wisdom and Knowledge to those un-
aware and ignorant of this treasure trove. The great souls associated with the
Ashram have continued the saintly work of Guru. it is a moment to reminisce
our vedic scriptures which are replete with valuable information that has to
be spread to make the planet livable by imbuing the thought of ‘ Vasudhaiva
Kutumbakam' or the universal love and brotherhood. Our Rishis left behind
a cache of knowledge be it philosophy, medicine or environment which has
stood the test of times. Where as the west is now overwhelmed by our en-
cient knowledge of science and culture seeking tranquility by practicing Yoga
and resonating AUM, our own young generation has to learn to respect such
thoughts and simple ways to have a peaceful living. I feel privileged having
been asked to say something about the activities of Ashram that has served
the humanity with humility avoiding lime light and publicity in true vedic Tra-
dition. I offer my respects to the Great GURU and wish the Ashram will play
even grander role in strengthening the revival of ancient indian ethos.

With best wishes,

Dr.Harsh Vardhan
