Patheyam is a 7 day residential camp, focusing on conveying to the youth the message from the Upanishads in terms they can relate too. It is also like a going back in time to the ancient Gurukul system where the Teacher and the taught sit together and knowledge is passed on to the new generation. Besides invaluable knowledge from the wisdom of our culture, the camp is loaded with activities that tease the brain and enthrall the mind. We believe that every Hindu should know his religion properly, that is why we also include rituals like a Gayatri Havan , Sagara Samvadam, etc. as part of the camp so one can associate with their culture making one feel 'Indian'.
