<div><strong>Introduction to VIDYA VICHAAR Kirtan Academy</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Satkaar Jog Guru roop piaree Saadh Sangat Ji, Guru Gobind Singh Ji da kaas roop samooh vidyaarthi please accept our nimrita sehaj benti ji. As most of you are already aware, with the grace of Akaal Purkh, Vaheguru Ji dee kirpa sadka, VIDYA VICHAAR sevadaars in UK, now also internationally have been tailoring tuition in Gurbani Kirtan, Tabla (higher intermediate) and now taati saaj (stringed instruments) are also part of our growing curriculum. We are a non-profit organisation that was established in the UK in 2018, with Vaheguru Ji’s kirpa we aim to spread Gurbani Kirtan, Tabla, Santhiya and Taati saaj knowledge in the upcoming curriculum year, bedtime stories relating to Sikh history will also be a new edition that we strive for. We also deliver tuition face to face, online and gurdwara classes, these classes are available to everyone of all ages and backgrounds who wish to absorb the knowledge blessed by Akaal Purkh. Our ethos has existed for many years, in fact Bhai Sahib Ji first started teaching kirtan at the age of 15 in UK, however their inspiration for starting a Vidyala began in 1984 as they expanded their seva. Fast forward to the present day, VIDYA VICHAAR has expanded within the UK and also Europe, India, America and Canada. The concept is inspired by Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj with the following pangti:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>ਵਿਦਿਆ ਵੀਚਾਰੀ ਤਾਂ ਪਰਉਪਕਾਰੀ ॥</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ang 356, meaning to contemplate and reflect upon knowledge and you will become a benefactor to others.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>VIDYA VICHAAR Kirtan Academy during the COVID-19 National Lockdown</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The national lockdown was a difficult time for many, for our organisation in particular it meant we could no longer travel and deliver tuition at gurdwaras and sangat’s homes. However, it was during this time that the organisation saw its strongest growth with immense support from sangat during the pandemic as we transitioned from in person lessons to exclusively online, total number of students reached 100+ during 2020 with 400+ by the end of 2021, today the total number of students have surpassed 1200+ within UK and internationally.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>Taking part in lessons or Seva</strong>
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>As previously mentioned, we are currently delivering tuition in Kirtan (Raag, Classical and Akhand), Santhiya (Gurbani pronunciation as well as Larivaar, both Guru Granth Sahib Ji and Dasam Granth Sahib Ji). If you wish to take part as a student or an assistant Sevadaar then please reach out to us on [email redacted], or through WhatsApp on 07999 029292, 07739 401382.
