It was with great honor that we had the chance to be among the Ashrams the UNESCO team visited back in 2003. They took lots of nice pictures while they were preparing the following
proclamation 2003:
Tradition
of Vedic Chanting in India
Masterpiece of the Oral Tradition & Intangible Heritage
of Humanity
Vedic Chanting, as
qualified by UNESCO, is considered to be part of scientific and artistic
rituals performed in India.
Its origin goes back thousands of years ago > visit UNESCO official website
As mentioned in their presentation, there are very few
families left, still performing true and authentic Vedic Yagnas. Most are in Orissa (state where our ashrams are) & some others in the South of India. We are
very privileged to have all our Pundits from the family lineage of
Brahmins, the only caste entitled to perform those rituals.
Among the various parts of UNESCO’s Action Plan to preserve
these traditions, there are school projects so that children descendant
of these families can learn, practice and perpetuate this wonderful
knowledge. Children must be trained
in very childhood, from 8 years old, to be able to perform Vedic rituals
properly.
Our Yagnas organization, operating fully independently, is also involved in the preservation
or these activities. Worldwide members sponsering Yagnas rituals, are also funding a Vedic school where children
of our Pundits families have the chance to learn their own tradition, with teachings of the elders > meet children of our vedic school
