Bhakti Vedanta Institute of Spiritual Culture and Science

The Bhakti Vedanta Institute of Spiritual Culture and Science is a 501(c)(3) charitable nonprofit educational organization based in Princeton. Our mission is to disseminate relevant knowledge through multimedia content and educational resources/programming that encourages and facilitates the practical application of wisdom found in the East from the lineage of Sri Chaitanya-Saraswat and in the West from the lineage of Plato-Aristotle-Hegel, towards contemporary investigations of the origin, purpose, relationship, and organic unity in difference of nature (matter), life, consciousness, and Spirit.

Such wisdom is founded in humility, tolerance, and giving respect to others without expecting it in return. Through organizing diverse educational platforms, such as international conferences, university programs, and online forums, blogs, newsletters, and websites, the Princeton BVISCS encourages the public, particularly scientists and scholars, to consider the natural synthesis of science, religion, and philosophy, and the role of consciousness in modern science.
