Our Mission
Our education is related to our Mother Earth & nobody should be forced to leave his village for bread, butter & education.
Syamantak Trust runs “University of Life” , a center for experiential, lifelong learning and sustainable living located at Dhamapur village in Sindhudurg district of Maharashtra, India. Our education is related to our Mother Earth. None should be detached from his Mother soil for the sake of keeping body and soul together. We had, in days of yore, excellent architects, superhuman, medical men, amazing space walkers, all that in villages. None of the great people of that time had to leave their villages. WHY NOW?
We are blessed by our spiritual master Sadguru Adaneshwar and Shri. Subhashchandra Desai, both fondly known as Dadaji. Sadguru Adaneshwar palm is a book of wisdom and direction for Syamantak family. Syamantak is inspired by Dr.Srinath Kalbag,who brought life into our vision, his wife Meera Kalbag our beloved Amma connecting us from science to spirituality.
“University of Life” is a residential community centre. Processes of self-designed organic learning run by the residents of Syamantak community. It may appear to others as vocational education. But what we are aiming is not vocational education, but education using real life activities as a medium of spiritual self-evolvement, exploration of social entrepreneurship skills with the perspective of ecological sustainability and social justice.We invite to “University of Life” all those who thirst for progress and aspire to a higher and truer life.
