Founder's Message

Swami Guruprasad Ji Paramhans

What does it truly mean to be human? A true human being is one who cultivates peace, patience, and consciously distances themselves from negative traits such as lust, anger, greed, delusion, ego, and jealousy—all of which are the root causes of our downfall. Among all virtues, inner stability stands as the most essential, and with education we can nurture this quality within ourselves.

Education is not just about academics; it is about transformation. It builds the ability to distinguish right from wrong and cultivates patience, self-awareness, and clarity of thoughts. Our thoughts are generally shaped by the values with which we are raised , the environment we live in, the influences around us, and the company we keep—all these often become obstacles in our personal growth. To overcome this, we must reform our thoughts. Education plays a pivotal role in that transformation. Our biggest mistake is to believe that we are perfect. True growth always begins with self-reflection, recognizing our flaws, and striving to improve.

It is the moral duty of every parent and teacher to encourage and support children in their pursuit of education. But this encouragement must be rooted with self discipline as children learn through observation of behaviour and values around them not just by words.

Our vision is to meet the growing need for an education that is of international standards, yet deeply grounded in India’s rich cultural heritage, moral values, and spiritual traditions. By blending modern knowledge with timeless wisdom, we aim to shape not just capable professionals, but responsible, ethical, and enlightened human beings. Let us work together to light the path of knowledge, character, and inner strength for the generations to come.

From the President’s Desk: A Vision for Tomorrow

With the divine blessings of Gurudev, Shri Purnanand Vidya Niketan Samiti is steadily transforming its vision into reality. For decades, the Samiti has been dedicated to the cause of education and social upliftment. Today, it stands as a respected and well-established name in the region’s educational landscape, requiring no formal introduction.

Under the aegis of the Samiti, three prominent institutions have been operating with commitment and excellence:

Shri Purnanand Inter College

Shri Purnanand Public School

Swami Purnanand Degree College of Technical Education

In continuing our journey toward holistic education, we have added another milestone by establishing a new college at the sacred foothills of Rishikesh. Currently, over 150 bright and dedicated students are shaping their futures at Swami Purnanand Degree College. With the rising demands of modern education and increasing competition, we have expanded our academic offerings this year to include a wide range of undergraduate programs:

New Courses Introduced:

Bachelor of Arts (B.A.) in Hindi, English, History, Political Science, Geography, Education, Economics

Bachelor of Commerce (B.Com)

Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) in Food Technology, Information Technology, Home Science

Alongside, Shri Purnanand Public School, which began with 150 students in the academic year 2016–17, continues to uphold the values and traditions taught by Gurudev. At present, the school offers classes up to Grade V. However, in line with our mission and Guruji’s dream, we are working diligently to extend the school up to Class XII in the near future. Last year, the Samiti completed the construction of a new, modern building to meet the growing infrastructure needs of our institutions. This development is just one example of our continued progress, and I firmly believe that such virtuous endeavors will persist and flourish in the years ahead. Together, we must commit ourselves to realizing the sacred vision of Guruji. I don’t just hope—but I am confident—that with the collective support of our staff, students, parents, and well-wishers, and with Guruji’s divine blessings, we will continue to achieve greater heights and create a new legacy in the field of education. Let us unite in purpose and spirit to build a brighter, more enlightened future.

Our Vision

As our great nation strides confidently toward a brighter future, it is steadily reclaiming its rightful place among the developed nations of the world. We envision the day when India once again becomes the "Guru of the Nations", offering leadership, wisdom, and support to the underprivileged and underserved.

At Shri Purnanand Vidya Niketan Samiti, our work represents a humble yet dedicated contribution to this noble process of nation-building. Inspired by the legacy and teachings of our revered Gurus, we are committed to realizing their dream of an enlightened, educated, and empowered society.

Our Mission
