Firekeepers of Civilization x Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham

It aims to develop in the mind four sets of intelligences: spiritual, cognitive, socio-cultural and political. The learners will traverse through the works of luminaries such as Sitaram Goel, Ram Swarup, Sri Aurobindo, Swami Vivekananda, A.K. Saran, etc. among others. Temple visits help connect with the sacred and spiritual dimensions of the civilization.
