Welcome to the ISKCON Ministry of Education

“Just like in the material world, there is education for medical man, there is education for engineer, there is education for so many other departments. Similarly, there is education how to make one man spiritual. So we are going to give education how to become spiritually advanced. That is our purpose.”

Srila Prabhupada

To focus on Krishna conscious education for children

Since 2019, the Ministry of Education has organized an annual symposium called Viplavah, which brings together ISKCON educators and leaders from around the world. This event aims to foster collaboration and expand Srila Prabhupada’s vision for education.

The theme for this year’s international symposium is Children’s Education. Throughout the week, different educators from various parts of the world will present their remarkable efforts in this important area.

This year’s symposium will be held virtually from December 18 to 22, 2024, and we are pleased to invite you to watch the presentations. We hope you find the knowledge shared during this event as enjoyable and insightful as we have.

This is an opportunity to unite educators from around the world who speak different languages, focusing on a holistic approach to child development. The aim is to combine spiritual, moral, and academic growth with skills training, viewing these as part of a continuous process for the future of the movement.
