SEVAK
‘Sevak’ is a word from Sanskrit,
which is one of the ancient languages in the world.
It means “one who serves”.
We believe that the one who serves can build togetherness in the world.
Our Mission
To serve fellow beings and
create a happy, healthy and peaceful world,
which lives together as one loving, caring family:
ONE WORLD, ONE FAMILY.
Founder
Acharya Vinay Vinekar is a teacher to some, a mentor to others, a guide, a motivator, a confidant and guru to many and yet this is an incomplete description of one who has made it his life’s mission to bring the world together as “ONE WORLD – ONE FAMILY”.
– Acharya Vinay Vinekar
Our Initiatives
Adhaar
Many of our fellow beings carry labels of mental retardation, spastic, handicapped, defective etc. and life seems to have become a never ending hurdle from one obstacle to another, not only for those who carry the label but, even for those who don’t (like the families of the labeled). Our society’s demands and values have caused greater anxiety and tensions about tomorrow and what next?
Home of Masters
We invite you to be part of “Home of Masters” (विश्व गुरु धाम /Vishwa Guru Dhaama) in Ghati, Karnataka. This abode carries message of oneness which many divine masters brought to life in many different ways and inspired many faiths.... It is in 3 physical levels.
