Sanatan Dharma is the foundation of our work. We bridge the gap between spirituality and application in the real world.

We work for the betterment of the people in our communities across Melbourne and beyond, serving the wider South Asian and Australian community. Through events, programs, activities and resources grounded in Hindu and Sanatan Dharmic principles, we bring ancient wisdom to modern living: to how we live, lead, parent, and serve.

Our major initiative

Sacred stories and texts of the Sanatan tradition, retold for children growing up in Australia. Free for every family.

The Five Pillars

How we work

Bhakti · Devotion

Satsang, kirtan, scripture, and the practice of bhakti through Hanuman and beyond.

Sanskriti · Culture and Community

Heritage carried with meaning, and the belonging that grows around it: music, dance, art, language, food, festivals, and showing up for one another.

Vidya · Education

Youth leadership, scripture and history, and the lifelong learning of all.

Vyavahara · Modern Application

Where dharma meets work, family, leadership, and the everyday.

Svasthya · Health and Wellness

Well-being of body, mind and spirit, through yoga, meditation, and holistic healing.
