A MISSION WITH A VISION
Acharyashri Mahapragya has embarked upon a five-year Ahimsa Yatra on foot at the commencement of the 21st Century. To the violence-afflicted and fear-ridden humanity, the Ahimsa Yatra is showing the way for harmonious development based on equality. Wherever Mahapragyaji is going in the states of Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh, and conveying his eloquent and enabling message, the spirit of Ahimsa and awareness of the need to promote ethical values is touching the heart-chords of the people.
Ahimsa Yatra, which will cover over 4000 kilometers, is set to inspire the people and provide meaningful and practical roadmap towards abjuring violence and developing ethical values. Ahimsa Yatra will terminate finally in New Delhi, the capital of India after the journey through Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Haryana. The significance of this novel and unique experiment of Ahimsa Yatra is gaining wide recognition nationally and internationally.
