 Introduction
The Maharana
Mewar Manav Dharma Trust helps to keep the human soul awakened,
alive and active, as per the tenets outlined by Guru Harit Rashi, to his
disciple Bappa Rawal, the founding father of the House of Mewar.
Mewar
has been for centuries, a land of learning and culture, where the study
of the Hindu Shashtras, including all their branches and tributaries was
cultivated.
Manav
Dharma is based on the eternal teachings of the Vedas, and Vedantic philosophy
in India is not an abstract study remote from the everyday life of man.
The civilization of India is an effort to embody philosophical wisdom in
social life, and the spiritual values enjoined by the Vedas are realised
on earth through empiric means and not by abstract learning.
The
aim of 'Manav Dharma' is to secure spiritual insight, which lifts life
beyond the meaningless into a more fulfilling spiritual plane.
Humanitarian
service has been considered an integral part of Manava Dharma. The custodians
of Mewar have always believed in the universal aspect of such service irrespective
of class or creed, religion, language or nationality.
This
Trust presently owns vast tracts of land as valuable assets. Its activities
are limited, and once the land has been disposed off, more funds will be
made available so as to continue with its charitable aims.
1)
The Trust hopes to initiate projects and activities of public welfare and
utility that will awaken the spirit of Man and instil the ideals of self-reliance
and self-respect.
2)
To implement projects and activities, which will lead to the spiritual
awakening of Man, and his moral upliftment, therefore making him responsive
to the feelings and sentiments of others around him, and useful to society
at large.
3)
And advancement of any other object of general public utility, not involving
the carrying out of any activity for the purposes of profit.
