What is a “Hindu” identity ? Have you exhausted all possibilities in adding meaning to this “label”?
Creating an affinity between being a Hindu and valuing the source of this identity – India – is not only an integral part of this initiative, but a natural thought process in itself.

Experiences
A personal journey: “An adventure waiting around every corner and countless opportunities to gain insight into what makes Bharat the amazing country it is! Roots has opened my mind to a deeper understanding and appreciation of the strength and beauty of our motherland. This journey has truly strengthened my personal connection and love for Bharat!”
How do I get to go?
An application process is required primarily for the benefits of understanding applicants in an effort to best guide decisions on subsequent participation. It is intended for you to think…not impress!
How would I prepare?
Upon selection and preparation for the journey to come, an intensive yet enjoyable orientation program will be conducted. This is an opportunity for you to develop yourselves and best understand specific and mandatory topics for the journey ahead.
Where could I be going?
The three-week journey will take you to areas and aspects of India you may never have dreamt of before. The areas have been carefully selected and tested to ensure you gain the most out of your experience, particularly when gaining a better understanding of the political, social, and spiritual aspects of India.
