SURYODAY VISHWANATH SHANTI SHRODH EVAM PRASAR KENDRA
 
Different Sampradaya and panths have always existed in our country. A Sampradaya is a living stream of tradition or theology within Hinduism, passed on by oral training and initiation. The term derives from the verb samprada, meaning "gift, grant, bestowing or conferring."

Sampradaya is thus a philosophy borne down through history by verbal transmission. It is more inclusive than the related term parampara, which names a living lineage of ordained gurus who embody and carry forth a sampradaya.
A sampradaya may be represented by many paramparas. Followers of one Sampradaya are usually ignorant about other Sampradayas. In simple words sampradaya in sanskrit means: a philosophical or religious doctrine or lineage. This centre is to provide information in detail on Nath community to the general public.

The Nath community being very ancient has a profound thought and rich Holy Scriptures. In order to research not only on the Nath community but also Tantra, Mantra and literature associated with Nath community, Vishwanath Shanti Shrodh and Prasar Kendra has been established. This centre is situated at Nimkarda near Akola. This is near the resting place of Shri Gajanan Maharaj, Shegaon District Buldana. Simultaneously this centre also coordinates knowledge and science.

It is a centre for research, study and information for the benefit of religious scholars. This centre will provide as a bank for spiritual and scientific knowledge, meditation centre and study on the Sampradaya.

The construction of a building for this project is under work in progress at Nimkarda, Tal-Balaqur,
district Akola.
 
SURYODAY RESTORATION AND REPAIR OF SAMADHIS, DHARGAS, TEMPLES YOJNA
“AN EFFORT TO STRENGTHEN HUMANITY AND BROTHERHOOD”
 
India is known for its rich culture of Saints, Seers, Prophets and holy Mahatmas. They were not bound by any orthodox identity like caste, creed, race or religion. Their life was full of many hardships They were well known for preaching lessons of humanity to the masses. They influenced people from all religions, castes, and creeds. They played a very vital role in preaching secularism and brotherhood. After a long time people from all parts of community started gathering at their holy places to venerate them. In this way secularism and humanity was kept alive but with the passing time these holy places started diminishing.
It is very sad to say that with these monuments the feeling of humanity and brotherhood also started vanishing. We need to revitalize the feeling of humanity and brotherhood.

P.P. Shri Bhaiyyu Ji Maharaj sense the need of the time and made a vow to renovate these mosques and temples. Suryoday has renovated several Mosques, Temples and Monuments of Philosophers at different places. Until now 10 such monuments have been renovated. Today once again these phenomenal spiritual places have become pious places of national and human religion. Shri Bhaiyyu Ji Maharaj wants to see the feeling of humanity and brotherhood among the masses. These holy places are playing a vital role in making his dream like thoughts coming true practically. Every year thousands of devotees gather at these places.

The trust has also been instrumental in renovating several isolated, neglected temples, mosques and other places of worship.
 
SURYODAY RISHI SANKUL - (BHARTIYA SANSKRUTI GYAN MANDIR)
 
India is a country, which has a rich culture with varied heritage. To enlighten the masses about our culture and heritage, to train them in meditation and spiritualism, to give them knowledge of non-conventional energy park, and also modern techniques of farming with demonstrations, the concept of Rishi Sankul has been mooted.

The Rishi Sankul is situated in harmony with nature’s green valley and hills, where common people will be made aware of Indian culture, its heritage, traditions, philosophy and ancient Indian literature such as the Vedas and Upanishads.
A centre has been constructed near Rishi Sankul Khamgaon, which boasts of having a Solar Energy Park, Gaushala, Pardhi Samaj Ashram shala, Krishi Tirtha, Bali Raja Dayan Prabhodhayan Centre, a Soil, Water, Fertilizer, seed and environment-testing laboratory. The ancient culture of our Rishis teaches us different methods of meditation. This meditation makes us complete.

This centre will have some unique features like dhyan, dharma, Parayan, Jal Sadhana, Agni Sadhana, Surya Sadhana, Yog Sadhana, Navrang Sadhana, meditation; an amphitheatre with a capacity for 1.500 people, a 54 ft. high dharma stambh and nakshatra udyan. Rishi sankul at Sajanpuri and Khamgaon would provide facilities to learn the methods and techniques of meditation and more about our ancient glorious culture.

Adiwasi ashramshala has also been established at Sajanpuri Khamgaon for educating the children of the Adiwasi community.
 
SURYODAY SARVA DHARMA SAMBHAV ABHIJAN
“AN EFFORT TO GATHER HUMAN FEELINGS”
 
Today we see the society fragmented by the thought of trying to prove that everybody’s religion is better than other's. Everywhere there are communal riots in the name of so-called religion. This proves to be a hurdle in the development of the nation. Unfortunately we have forgotten the values, culture and our rich tradition and orthodox thinking in the name of religion. The result is very noxious.

Does any religion teach us anything of this sort? We always have this question in our mind because we do not know the real values and teachings of our religion. In today’s fast life we do not get time to read our holy books, therefore how can it be possible to read about other religious books.
Common men are confused about the basic definition of religion. If we succeed in understanding the basic values of all religions there will not be any misunderstanding and disgust about each other’s religion. After making a deep study of every religion we come to know the gospel that the extract of all religions is one and that is serving humanity. If we adopt all the good values of every religion we can develop an ideal personality in our selves. This will allow us to be a true nationalist for the overall development of our country.

P.P. Shri Bhaiyyu Ji Maharaj has taken a forefront to organize conferences with all religious philosophers, so that the phenomenal preaching’s and principles of different religions can be expressed in such gatherings. It will certainly develop a sense of respect for each other’s religion in the minds of the masses.

Under the able and inspiring guidance of Bhaiyyu Dada, the Suryoday Trust has successfully organized conference based in all religions at different places like Pune and Aurangabad at Maharashtra, Indore and Sendhwa at Madhya Pradesh. These philosophers simplified the moral values of different religions and unanimously express the view that nationalism is the true and first religion of every human. We may belong to any religion but we have to be loyal towards our nation. The religious philosophers present in the conference vowed that they would work for the same cause for which Suryoday trust is working. They have kept their word and today they have even joined hands with us in performing several social projects.

Shri Sadguru Datta Dharmik Evam Parmarthik Trust will offer training Programmes on the religious teachings of different religions. The Programmes focus on these main messages: God is one; we are all one and the same with the same blood flowing in us; people have to rise above religious differences and put the nation over everything else; and all religions are good but the religion of patriotism is above all.

The main aim is to spread the message of unity and similarity in the teachings of all religions through Programmes like “Ek Shyam Rashtra Ke Naam”, “Sarv Dharma Sambhav” and “Mera Rashtra Mera Dharma”.
 
SURYODAY TIRTHAKSETRA SWACHATA ABHIJAN
 
India is one of the few countries in the world, which has been blessed with some of the richest heritage, and cultures in the world. India is home to some of the world’s most beautiful temples and religious places.

Indians are essentially quite religious and there are plenty of places in India with a lot of religious significance. The state of Maharashtra has some very popular and highly frequented religious places. Places like the Vitthal and Rukmini temple at Pandharpur, the Tulja Bhawani temple at Tuljapur are some of the important religious destinations.
 
SURYODAY SANT NAGARI
 
India is a vast country and every region has been blessed with the birth and presence of a Saint, or an enlightened being. The task of tracking information about them, their lives, their works and their Samadhi, apart from information on places of pilgrimage, has been made possible by the commitment of Param Pujnya Shri Bhaiyyu Ji Maharaj who has been the source of inspiration to establish “Sant Nagari”.

Gurudev says that it will be highly helpful and profitable if people learn about the teachings and views on spirituality and religion, which were propounded by these saints.
In order to achieve this objective he has started this very ambitious project, “Sant Nagari” where he proposes to build replicas of the samadhis or monuments, which are dedicated to 2.370 saints from all over India. The saints who will be commemorated in the Sant Nagari will find a place in this noble venture irrespective of their religion and faith. This project of building the Sant Nagari will also include booths providing detailed information on various pilgrimage and religious subjects. The Sant Nagari will also be home to a state of the art information centre equipped with the latest interactive technologies which will be used to provide a more comprehensive set of information on each saint and his or her respective activities.

The “Sant Nagari”, a centre for information on the life and work of known and unknown saints, sages, Rishis, munis, spiritual beings, peers and fakirs. highlights their contributions in influencing the socio-economic, political and religious life of this country through ages.

The Saints who glorified India for the last three thousand years by influencing our socio-economic, political and religious life are to be highly revered and honoured. Their contribution to the development and devotion of the nation needs to be projected for the benefit of coming generations. Numerous Saints, Rishis, Munis, Peer and Fakirs have elevated Indian culture by contributing their spiritual wisdom. However, taking into account the huge geographical boundaries of India, it is impossible that every Indian can gain information on every saint, his Samadhi and the history associated with him. The problem has been solved by building “Sant Nagari” an innovative concept of erecting memorials of 2.370 such saints at one place, exactly as they were in those times.
