- Centre for IKS and Value Education- आराधना भवन
Icon Education Society, which manages three leading institutions in Central India, offers an enriching environment that includes a temple, expansive grounds for yoga and physical activities, and most significantly, आराधना भवन—the Centre for Indian Knowledge System. This centre, inaugurated in November 2019 by Padma Bhushan Jain Acharya Shri Ratna Sundar Surishwar Ji Maharaj, is founded on the principles of Gyan-Darshan-Charitra, addressing the essential needs of today’s youth.
Post-COVID-19, आराधना भवन has emerged as a space for healing and motivation, offering meditation and breathing practices for both students and faculty. Beyond yoga and mindfulness activities, it serves as a hub for disseminating Indian wisdom through the reading of scriptures like the Ramayan, Mahabharat, Bible, Guru Granth Sahib, and other sacred texts.
The Holistic Development Club/IKS Cell actively promotes the celebration of Indian festivals such as Lohri, Makar Sankranti, Onam, Vasant Panchami, Holi, Chaitra Gudi Padwa, Guru Poornima, Hariyali Amavasya, Ganesh Utsav, Janmashtami, Navratri, and Diwali (Laxmi Poojan). These celebrations are accompanied by teachings about their mythological roots and environmental significance—for instance, Makar Sankranti is linked to the sun’s movement and seasonal dietary changes. Activities like kite flying symbolize staying grounded while aspiring to soar high, emphasizing trust and progress through tradition.
The institution remains committed to the holistic growth of its students, recognizing that core values and ethics form the foundation of this development. To nurture these qualities, the day begins with a prayer:
“सर्वे भवन्तु सुखिनः सर्वे सन्तु निरामयाः”—wishing well-being and health for all.
