Aadi Parv
How many times have you felt the need for the ability to sail through all the odds of life courageously and come out as victorious? Are there some aspects of our existence which remain unsatisfied in spite of all our achievements? Is there a way of living which can open the doors of perpetual joy and happiness, everlasting and illimitable?
When one tries to find answers to such questions, one colossal figure who cannot be forgotten is Swami Vivekananda.
“I was barely fifteen when Vivekananda entered my life. Then there followed a revolution within and everything was turned upside down”
This is how Subhash Chandra Bose describes the influence of Swami Vivekananda.
He had such impacts on the lives of countless personalities who were transformed after coming in contact with his thoughts and which enabled them to reach new heights. Vivekananda Samiti, IIT Kanpur makes an attempt to implement the teachings of Swami Vivekananda through practical activities for the overall well being of the campus community. To start the session 2022-23, we have planned Aadi Parv, the introductory festival to convey our mission, vision and activities to the campus community. We cordially invite you to join.
