Universal Brotherhood Day
'vasudhaiva kutumbakam' meaning "The whole world is one family" & 'krunvanto vishwamaryam' meaning "Let us ennoble the world" are two shining gems from the immensely rich Vedanta that have extreme relevance today.
U B Day is an occasion to reaffirm our commitment and faith in the time-tested Indian philosophy that has given the world the priceless message of unity in diversity.
Universal outlook is the hallmark of Indian thought. Many festivals, rituals and ceremonies are celebrated to reaffirm this spirit over and over again. Rakshabandhan is one such occasion when the bonds are strengthened within a family and as well as society.
Standing at the gates of an important epoch, the world is compelled to again search for those values that would draw a new course for humanity that would, ensure peace, development and security for the whole world. We believe that the U B Day function is a small step in that direction.
