Our Inspiration
The Guru in 1916
Inspiration of Righteousness
From the 19th century, Nārāyana Guru has inspired present-day Kerala towards the path of spiritual and social reform. A Sanskrit scholar, poet and spiritual master, this Guru’s divinity, wisdom and mystical philosophy of human equality were instrumental in re-writing the social history of Kerala from the late 1880s through the early 1900s. The Guru’s call for social reform through a path of spiritual empowerment, education and self-sustenance of the underprivilaged spread its positive vibes like wildfire through all hierarchies of society and intelligentsia, including influencing other stalwarts like Mahatma Gandhi and Rabindranath Tagore.
