All About
Bhaktivedanta Institute’s Summer and Winter Schools are structured around the idea to emphasize more on a subject matter and present and share vivid views on the same. The summer schools are filled with not only thought provoking classes but also interactive workshops and personality development activities.
These schools share the same objectives as AISSQ does. But to reiterate, the school’s main objective is to enthuse the young minds of India to delve into the subject of science keeping along the element of spirituality.
“The student must have a very humble state of mind and also must be very inquisitive.”
Dr. T. D. Singh
Founder of Bhaktivedanta Institute
