~The Mahavidya India School Project~
Inspired by the work of Shri Param Eswaran, the Mahavidya Girls School was created by Sri Devanayagi Parameswaran to give a safe, loving environment for the next generation of Mothers in India.
"We believe that when we empower women, we heal families and communities."
~ Shri Param Eswaran~
The goal of Sri Devanayagi Parameswaran and Shri Param Eswaran is to adopt young
girls who have been abandoned and provide them with both a new family and a new
community. These forgotten "little goddesses of India" will have a fresh chance
in life and an opportunity to live healthy, happy and productive lives.
The Mahavidya Girls School intends to allow young girls gain the tools and
confidence to bless their families and communities with the Grace and Love of
the Divine Mother, as Living Goddesses. For when a Mother is divine, the home is
heaven. There they will receive an education that is nurturing for their body,
mind and spirit. In addition to receiving a modern education, these young girls
will receive an education in tradition Indian culture, so that these girls will
be able to advance the future of their communities while still embracing the
rich traditions of the past.
"The aim of education is to help the child develop their intellectual,
aesthetic, emotional, moral, spiritual being and communal life…"
~ Sri Aurobindo~
The scope of this Project is to build the Mahavidya Girls School and to put it
on firm footing so that it can continue to grow and thrive into the future. Our
goal is to raise approximately $108,000 USD for this phase of the project. The
breakdown for the project is as follows:
Costing
| We need to build a new kitchen and dining room | - US $6, 026 |
| Special toilets that will suit little goddesses | - US $ 8, 104 |
| Dormitories for 20 students and 6 staffs to be built this year | - US $49, 872 |
| 2 new classrooms | - US $10, 387 |
| Play ground | - US $2,000 |
| Equipments | - US $4,156 |
| Library | - US $5,402 |
| Wages | - US $12,468 |
| Sundries | - US $ 4,000 |
| Engineering & Architectural | - US $ 5,000 |

The funds can come either by donations or by hosting sound healing workshops in your local area. To host a workshop, all that one has to do is find a venue and 12 participants for each workshop. A vegetarian household can provide accommodation for Shri Param Eswaran while being your guest. Our master so far has invitation to Melbourne Australia, Harrison Maine, United States, and Italy.
By hosting sound healing workshops you will both help spread the teachings of the living Goddess Tradition, and at the same time help fund the school project, thus helping village children that have been forgotten.
Let us together help bring new opportunities to the forgotten Village Children. You can check out the following website to see what we have been doing with the Village Children until 2007 http://www.tantric-goddess.org/devanayagi.html
May the Divine Mother cradle you in Her Love and Light
