About Us
Our Vision..
The primary purpose of Aashirvad Foundation is to focus on the social, mental and physical welfare of the impoverished, destitute and ostracized sectors of our community. Providing them shelter and education irrespective of caste, creed, religion or sex. As we do our work compassion, empathy and empowerment will remain at the forefront of our organization.
We strive to be true to our founding core -
परोपकरार्थं इदं शरीरं <> Our life’s true purpose is helping others in need
We are inspired by one of the profound sacred guiding verses Lord Shri Krishna imparted thru Bhagvat Geeta -
दानं दीयतेऽनुपकारिणे । देशे काले च पात्रे सात्त्विकं ॥
Charity given to a worthy person without consideration of anything in return at the proper time and in the proper place is true goodness.
Our Philosophy..
We believe that our creator gave us human life with some purpose and it is our duty to try to fulfil it. We will try to leave this world a better place than it was when we came in. We will always strive and aim to create an environment and society fueled by the pillars of equality, humanity, kindness and empowerment for those denied basic opportunities due to challenging circumstances to ensure the betterment of society as a whole.
Our philosophy follows sacred guiding verses Lord Shri Krishna imparted thru Bhagvat Geeta –
कर्मण्येवाधिकारस्ते मा फलेषु कदाचन ।
मा कर्मफलहेतुर्भूर्मा ते सङ्गोऽस्त्वकर्मणि ॥
No matter what conditions you encounter in life, your right is only to the work that you contribute and not to the outcome. You should never be influenced to deviate from the righteous path nor should you be attached to inaction.
