International Sadguru Gurukulam (ISG)

Considering the modern era and the need to bring back quality education, Satguru Foundation started the residential school “International Sadguru Gurukulam” based on the most effective Gurukul education system, in the year 2018 at Kundaim, Ponda Goa.

Why International Sadguru Gurukulam ?

The generation today is much more preoccupied with modern lifestyle and their career related vying. Our culture and traditions hold less significance to them. Parents often realize the depth of the situation but tend to overlook as they find no cure to it. Every parent is liable to make his child strong enough to survive in this fast moving modern world, yet reviving vedic and most ancient Indian culture into them. H.H. Sadguru Brahmeshanandacharya Swamiji envisioned the forthcoming situation where the gene of moral conscience and ethical values would no more be expressed in the future generation and International Sadguru Gurukulam was found to be the ultimate cure to it keeping in mind the all-round development of the child. This formed the baseline behind the birth of this educational institution by Satguru Foundation.
