This Online School is Transforming Education and Uniting Students Worldwide

Enter the world of Agastya Gurukulam, an online school like no other. A place where language appreciation, critical thinking, and ancient Indian knowledge systems are not just taught, but revered. Founded by three individuals with a shared ideology, this non-profit institution has grown to over 400 students from ten different countries, all eager to learn and expand their understanding of the world. But this is no ordinary school. Agastya Gurukulam teaches entirely in Sanskrit, a language that few have mastered and many have forgotten. Yet, the founders hold that a thorough command of Sanskrit is a prerequisite for a deep understanding of India's ancient knowledge systems. Through the study of Sanskrit, students are able to decipher historical mysteries and apply them to their areas of specialization. For parents around the world, Agastya Gurukulam has become a beacon of hope. Take the case of Supriya Shastry, who pulled her daughter out of regular school to homeschool her and due to lack of exposure to Indian culture,  turned to Agastya Gurukulam. And it was there that her daughter, Shriya Ashwin, began to learn about India in a spiritual way, connecting with her heritage in a way that she never thought possible. And now, with a brick-and-mortar structure in Bengaluru, India, and plans for another school in Houston, Texas by the year's end, Agastya Gurukulam is well on its way to spreading its message to students around the globe. Agastya Gurukulam is more than just a school. It is a place where ancient wisdom meets modern learning, where language is revered, and where critical thinking is celebrated. For those seeking a spiritual way of learning and a deeper understanding of India's rich cultural heritage, there is no better place than Agastya Gurukulam.

Know who just became the youngest post graduate in India at 16!

  Have you just turned 16? Or, remember the time when you were of that age? The memories will be of a confused brain that didn’t know what to go for after completing your board exams. Well, in one of the many firsts, an Indian prodigy, has made the headlines for doing something which can give a complex to all teenagers, and to our old self as well. A Hyderabad boy, named Agastya Jaiswal, has completed his post-graduation at the tender age of 16. He did his Masters in Sociology from Osmania University. There’s more to it — he is the first Indian to complete intermediate in two streams, BiPC (Biology, Physics, Chemistry) and CEC (Civics, Economics, Commerce). Before this, he had completed his 10th when he was 8, and graduated in B.A. Mass Communication at the age of 14. Proud parents, Ashwani Kumar Jaiswal (father), and Bhagyalaxmi Jaiswal (mother) had a big role in guiding their special son to success. His father said, “Agastya had become the Google boy at the age of 2 by answering 300 questions, and 3000 questions at the age of 5.” The list doesn’t end here — Agastya is also ambidextrous, which means he can write with both hands. He can type A to Z alphabets in just 1.72 seconds. Adding more to his laurels, Agastya is a motivational speaker and a national table tennis player. Safe to say, Agastya is God’s very own child in the world of mere mortals. Here’s hoping for his future success in making India proud!
