Vision
We vision That education is not merely attainment of perfection already in man. Perfection has to be manifested to the outside world through his thoughts, words and deeds. God is the perfection in man in the form of Jivatman. The nature inherited by the man envelops the Jivatman. Sublimation of the base nature to reach the noble nature is perfection.
Mission Statement
'Education is the manifestation of the perfection already in man', says Swami Vivekananda. The nature or character or swabhava, inherited by one, comprising of Sattwa guna, Rajo guna and Tamo guna covers the Jivatman. One living for the welfare of the people has Sattwa guna. One who lives only for earthly or bodily pleasures has Rajo guna. One with Tamo guna lives a beastly life. The Jivatman when it leaves one body to join another body, carries the vasanas or the nature with it, Says Bhagawat Gita. Beside, one inherits the nature of mother and father due to dominance of their chromosomes.
