While worldly law ensures protection, Soham Dnyanpeeth believes that true wisdom is never owned—it is only channeled. However, the responsibility to protect its sanctity lies with the one who has been chosen to receive and express it. Hence, we guard these expressions not out of ego, but out of reverence to the divine source that flows through them.
Closing Note
“When wisdom is shared with purity, it uplifts. When it is misused or copied, its light dims—for both the giver and the taker. May all who come here honor the sanctity of sacred knowledge.”
— Vidyavachaspati Vidyanand, Founder – Soham Dnyanpeeth
