Making of INS Kaundinya (Stitched Ship)
A 21-metre stitched ship, crafted using ancient Indian techniques—stitching wooden planks with natural fibers, resin, and oils—is set to sail from Odisha to Bali in November 2025 with a 13-member Indian Navy crew.
Led by the Indian Navy, Ministry of Culture, and Hodi Innovations, the ₹9 crore project revives a shipbuilding tradition once dominant before European influence. Master shipwright Babu Sankaran is overseeing construction using time-tested methods lost to modern frames.
The voyage honours India’s rich seafaring heritage and showcases the sustainability and skill of traditional naval craftsmanship.
Presentation on Hindu Network Foundation
Hindu Fund is a bold movement to awaken and empower Dharma. As a grant-making platform under Hindu Network Foundation (earlier implement through Sarayu Foundation Trust), we are building a ₹1,000 Crore corpus to support those who serve Sanatana Dharma—fearlessly, selflessly, and often silently.
We fund dharmic change-makers across India and beyond.
Our motto is simple yet powerful: “Trust by Default.”
We offer liberal grants without red tape—because warriors of Dharma deserve dignity, not scrutiny.
Founded by Rahul Dewan and backed by the legacy of Sarayu Foundation Trust—the force behind Sangam Talks and other pioneering initiatives—Hindu Fund is not just a fund. It is a call to action.
This is our time.
To give. To stand. To rebuild.
Take a Sankalpa. Be a force for Dharma.
Rig Veda Chanting - Vaidik Bharat Gurukul Students
The Rig Veda, one of the world’s oldest sacred texts, lives on through the disciplined voices of young students trained in the oral tradition. This year, students from Vaidik Bharat Gurukul performed Rig Veda chanting, exemplifying the precision, devotion, and continuity of India’s Vedic heritage.
Rooted in the Guru-Shishya parampara, the chanting is not merely a recitation—it is a transmission of sacred sound, preserved through centuries by memory, discipline, and reverence. Their performance highlights the vitality of India’s intangible knowledge systems and the enduring power of Shruti—knowledge that is heard and realized.
Through this effort, we honour a tradition that continues to shape the spiritual and intellectual foundation of Bharat.
Manuscripts & Inscriptions: Problem Statement & Solutions
India is home to millions of ancient manuscripts and inscriptions—on palm leaves, stone, and copper plates—that hold vast civilizational knowledge.
Sadly, most remain uncatalogued, undigitized, or lie forgotten in temples and private collections.
Fragile materials are decaying, scripts are becoming unreadable, and heritage is slipping away.
Lack of preservation, trained experts, and public awareness has deepened the crisis.
If we don’t act now, generations of wisdom risk being lost forever.
Preserving them is not just about history—it’s about protecting our roots and identity.
