hing Bharatvarsha to the status of Viswa Guru. It is a platform of Positive, Patriotic and Professional individuals founded during the 150th Birth centenary celebrations of Swami Vivekananda. Deriving immense inspiration from the philosophy of Swamiji, based on the ideals of Wisdom (Viveka) and Ananda (Bliss), we draw upon the wealth of our heritage which says “NA HI JNANENA SADRUSHAM PAVITRAMIHA VIDYATE” i.e. “There is nothing like knowledge, which purifies.”
Vision: To Inspire Infuse and Instill Bharatiyata as a path of Life. Mission: To Promote research and understanding in Bharatiya Sanskars and Sanskruti and integrate Social, Economical, Educational, Political and Spiritual perspective of thought and practice by providing a platform for the emergence and exchange of inspired and Nationalistic Intellectuals.

Indumati Katdhare, Dr. Subbanna Bhat, Sri Ravi Kumar Iyer, Smt. Shanthakka, Sri Sharad Dhole, Sri Vinayak Govilkar and Sri Prasad Pandit among others. Recently we organized STEP: The State of the Nation Conclave, a 2 days intellectual confluence, where nearly 400 invitees across various professions along with 300 University students participated in highly stimulating deliberations on the Social, Technological, Economic and Political Transformation of Bharat. This was an initiative of Prabuddha Bharath, Belagavi in bringing together some of the finest minds of the nation, striving with a single point agenda to realize a unified and unique nationhood to Bharat. It was an enhancement of our commitment in building a healthy society through deliberations based on Objective, Intellectual and Nationalistic perspective. The sessions were designed for a select gathering and stalwarts like Sri S Gurumurthy, Sri Tarun Vijay, Sri V. Nagaraj and Dr. Sateesh Reddy, Scientific Advisor to Raksha Mantri were the key note speakers. In our efforts to enlighten the informed public about the implications of emerging developments and strategy, we are pleased to present a discussion on one of the most far reaching measure of the present Government, namely demonetization. Our mission is to engage, enlighten and enrich public discourse with a positive and possible contribution towards nation building.
