About Arya Samaj

The Maker of Modern Bharat & Great Social Reformer

Arya Samaj, founded by Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati in 1875, is more than a spiritual or religious movement—it is a transformative philosophy based on the eternal truths of the Vedas. Its guiding principles emphasize the pursuit of truth (Satya), the rejection of dogma and superstition, and the upliftment of humanity through universal education, equality, and social reform. Arya Samaj advocates for a harmonious balance between spiritual growth and practical engagement with the world, aiming to establish a society based on justice, knowledge, and righteousness.

At the heart of Arya Samaj is the belief in universal brotherhood, eradicating social evils, and empowering individuals through self-reliance and adherence to Vedic principles. The ten foundational principles of Arya Samaj serve as a blueprint for living a life that is meaningful, ethical, and in service to humanity. These principles are beyond caste, creed, and nationality barriers, making Arya Samaj a universal philosophy for personal and societal evolution.
