An invocation

Co-creating a habitat of Learning for the New Age Learner is the most engaging, enriching and empowering engagement a community undertakes.

 We are privileged to invite you as partners in this endeavour.

Innovations have been a part of Indian heritage and tradition- from the improvisation of breathing to the synthesis of mind and body systems, from the discovery of zero and the decimal system to being the cradle of an ancient civilisation and major world religions, from being home to the first global Universities such as Nalanda and Takshila, to architectural and engineering marvels.
 
At the VBPS, education for peace contextualises learning. We live in an age of unprecedented violence: locally, nationally and globally. Peace concretises the purpose of values and motivates their internalisation. Inner peace is the kernel of collective peace. The ability to respond justly and affirmatively to the needs and sufferings of the others is the hallmark of authentic inner peace - a commitment to effective citizenship and secularism.

Our tradition teaches compassion; our philosophy preaches compassion and our constitution practices compassion. At VBPS we are committed never to dilute it.
 
For us, every child is a soul in evolution, a psychic being born on earth to grow through experiences and fulfill a deeper sense of purpose. Our task then as teachers is to relate to this spark- the child- with love, and to serve it.
 
Our task is to nourish the seed, and the plant will bloom as it chooses. The mind must be consulted in its growth.
 
Values are the water, the soil, the air and the sun with which we nourish the plant. For we believe, nothing can be taught, all knowledge exists within us, it only needs to be uncovered.
