Food for the hungry, medicine for the sick, education for the illiterate, housing for the homeless and hope for the downtrodden — Parmarth aims to serve the needy in whatever capacity possible.

There are two types of needy people who come to Parmarth. There are those whose needs are logistic, basic, physical – they are hungry; they are homeless; they are sick; they can’t afford to care for their children. For these people Parmarth provides a wide range of programs and charitable services. Pujya Swamiji fervently believes that if a man’s stomach is empty, or if he is burning with fever, or if he cannot feed or educate his children, then one must address those needs before trying to teach this man meditation or philosophy.
