| Throughout the year, Swami Paramanand Ji travels to the various ashrams teaching the Vedant, and guiding students in a variety of self-realization techniques in his popular yoga and meditation intensive camps. Typically the days begin before dawn with meditation and yoga followed by a day of spiritual discourses and awareness exercises and ending with a question and answer session before the evening satsang and meditation. In between programs, Swami Ji oversees the numerous social projects of Akhand Paramdham as well as implementing new ones wherever he sees the need. |
Educational Institutions
He has established 16 schools and colleges in remote areas of India that provide opportunities for those who otherwise would not be able to get aneducation. Providing classrooms, room and board and buses for those who need to commute has been a Godsend for thousands of underprivileged children. |

The concept is to provide a loving family environment where each child is nurtured, where unmarried women can provide the tender care the child needs, while elder figures who might otherwise be in old age homes have the chance of playing grandparent roles. There are no blood relationships within the family but each person contributes to the natural well being of the other and emulates a natural family. |
Women's Assistance
To assist the economic empowerment of women, Swami Ji has set up programs that teach a variety of skills such as embroidery, knitting, sewing and fabric painting, in various villages in India, enabling women to become independent. |

Vatsalya Gram ... A Mother's Love
Sadhvi DiDi Ma Ritumbhara
The Vatsalya Gram concept is an alternative to orphanages, women's shelters and homes for the elderly. Entire villages have been established providing loving family environments for children. Previously abandoned children are nurtured, single women become mothers and aunts, and elders who would otherwise be in old folks homes become grandparent figures. Real families have developed in these communities where each person contributes to the natural well being of the other. Swami's devotee, DiDiMa Ritumbhara, is the dynamic force overseeing this project which has now received international acclaim.
Vatsalya Gram is changing the lives of many destitue and needy people. Come forward and help us build a new future for them. Come be a part of this noble cause.
