Kolkata, the birth place of Swami Vivekananda, is known for its spiritual heritage. Greatest masters of spirituality emerged from here and revitalized the spiritual fabric of our country. The insights gained through his own inner research by Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa and propagated by his genius disciple Swami Vivekananda, triggered off a new dimension of this ancient wisdom. The multidimensional approach of Work, Worship, Philosophy and Psychic Control emerged to provide solutions to the problems of the hi-tech era.
Kolkata is the capital of West Bengal with Ganga, the sacred river sanctifying the land and merging with the Bay of Bengal depicting the journey of human beings to expand and merge with the ultimate state of absolute freedom. Dakshineshwar, the sadhana place of Ramakrishna Paramahamsa and Belur, the head quarters of Sri Ramkrishna Mission, are just across the corner for a worthwhile enchanting visit. Kolkata during December has probably the bestweather of the year with very pleasant temperatures varying from 10? to 15? C.
The Kalyan Bharti Trust has established The Heritage School, located on the outskirts of Kolkata, amidst spacious, serene, green, unpolluted landscape. Here, traditions of the ancient Gurukul system strike the right balance with state-of-the-art educational technology. The guiding light of The Heritage is its motto "Atma Deepo Bhawa" or "Be Your Own Light". Heritage students are encouraged to explore, reach out and seek answers for themselves. The teachers are encouraged to innovate, guide and, most importantly, become "first learners".
