About Sandipani Vidyaniketan

Sandipani Vidyaniketan is a leading educational institution in Gujarat, India, providing Vedic education in Sanskrit employing an ancient Vedic teaching style while simultaneously incorporating current, modern-day subjects in modern facilities. Education at Sandipani is based on a system of education of Vedic culture taught by ancient Rishis, known as tapovan.

Sandipani Vidyaniketan was established to spread Indian heritage and culture, create leaders and rekindle humanity for the betterment of society as well as a prosperous future. It strives to achieve the highest standards of learning in Sanskrit and for establishing cultural and humanitarian values.

Since its inception in 1992, when Sandipani began providing Vedic education in Sanskrit as a Rishikul, its activities and services have greatly expanded to teaching modern day subjects with a foundation of cultural values.

“Rishi Sandipani was the guru of both Shri Krishna and Shri Sudama (Shri Sudama was from Porbandar). We chose the name Sandipani for the Vidyaniketan as we wished our students to become like Sudama, for whom knowledge is supreme wealth, who possess a pure heart and good character,” Pujya Bhaishri.

Sandipani Vidyaniketan was founded by Pujya Bhaishri with a cause closest to his heart: spreading knowledge of the Vedic scriptures and upholding the cultural heritage of India. It is run by Shri Bharatiya Sanskruti Samvardhak Trust on donations.

Sandipani Vidyaniketan currently contains two sections:

• Rishikul imparting Vedic education in Sanskrit, and
• Gurukul imparting education in English and Gujarati mediums.
