Bharata, or India is known for its rich heritage of some of the world′s most ancient texts on science and knowledge systems. It is the land where the sacred Vedic aadhyatmayoga, spiritual knowledge originated and is being practiced, preserved and propagated from time immemorial. As children of this holy land, we consider it our duty and responsibility to transmit the vast treasure of this Vedic knowledge to our future generations.
Arya Samajam Vellinezhi was established on 14th Sep 2013 and continues the Socio – Religious reform movement of Arya Samaj established by Maharshi Dayananda Saraswathi 1875. As part of its Gurukula mission two Arsh Gurukulas established in Kerala for promoting our ancient Vedic studies by a dedicated team led by Arya Pracharak Sri. KM Rajan Meemamsak, Sri. V Govinda Das, Sri. Baleswar Muni Vanaprasthi etc.
First Vedic Gurukula dedicated to immortal Arya Missionary Pandit Lekhram named as ‘Pandit Lekhram Arsh Gurukul Mahavidyalay’ was established at Vellinezhi village of Palakkad district of Kerala on 8th July 2014 with the support of Swami Pranavanand Saraswathi of Gautam Nagar Gurukul, Delhi.
Another Vedic Gurukula dedicated to immortal Arya Missionary Pandit Rishiram named as ‘Pandit Rishiram Aryopadeshak Mahavidyalaya’ was established on 23rd April 2015 at Thiruvilwamala in Thrissur District of Kerala.

Objectives of Vedagurukulam
- To preserve the tradition of the Vedas, the Shastras (Vijnana) and Yoga in their original form.
- To perpetuate the Gurukula tradition in the modern world.
- To cultivate a social-outlook and spiritual insight in the youth.
- To prove that the Rishi parampara is still relevant in this modern age.
- To teach the Shastras through the right medium i.e. Samskritam and to propagate samskrita conversation.
The Principles Guiding Vedagurkulam
The “Shashtra Parampara” (Tradition of Shastra) of Bharatavarsha is held in high esteem all over the world. We believe that this Parampara can flourish only through the Gurukula tradition. Moreover, with the growing influence of Western consumerism in this land of Bharatha, utilitarianism has mushroomed and the young and energetic men and women, solely dedicated to preserving our tradition as their life’s mission, have become rare. In this context, we consider it necessary that the youth take up the responsibility of such a mission in the modern age.
Furthermore, we firmly believe that Vedic and Vedantic scholars must also cultivate a scientific temperament as well as become conscious of their social responsibilities. Scholarliness must shine in good nature. Kshatrabala (Dynamic power) must be well grounded on the Brahmabala (Spiritual might).
