About sanskul

ISKCON Pittsburgh - Supporting Kids Education

 We offer a contemporary education that is rooted in the time-tested Vedic wisdom, with a focus on providing experiences that are suitable for each student's level of development and that nourish the body, mind, and soul. Through our approach, students are able to benefit from the wisdom of the past while still preparing themselves for the challenges of the present and future.

According to the ancient Yoga Texts known as Upanishads, every individual is essentially a spiritual being that perceives the world through five layers or coverings, collectively known as Pancha Kosha. To achieve complete personality development, it is important to foster the age-appropriate development of these five layers. This process is referred to as Panchakosha Vikas. By engaging in Panchakosha Vikas, individuals can connect with their spiritual selves and attain a deeper understanding of themselves and the world around them.
