May I be a protector for those without one,
A guide for all travelers on the way, May I be a bridge, a boat and a ship For all who wish to cross (the water).

I am happy to know that this institute established in 1956 has been comittted to the task of collection of ancient Indian manuscripts its restoration and preservation. This is a vital task for providing information support to the research scholars who are engaged in indological research, particularly on Jainism and Hindu philosophy. My greetings to all the members assembled here. I would like to talk on the topic “Spirituality in Religion”. My experience in Bulgaria
Dear friends your institute's main focus is on Indology, I am remindeed of meeting the students of Department of Indology of Sofia University in Bulgaria. I met and discussed with the students of Indology, Sofia University and esteemed faculty members. The students have been showing interest in ancient Indian heritages through manuscripts, literature, art and music. They have been making sustained efforts in understanding the crucial links between the culture of Bulgaria and India. I suggested the Indology students to create intense collaboration with Indian Universities where Indology is taught as a subject which will provide a window to the world where the past will meet Inagural address on the scanning of inaguration of E-library Project on 11 November 2011
