Brahma Vidyalayam
A great school for the teaching of all religions was the vision of Gurudev which has taken the form of Brahmavidyalaya at Sivagiri. This institution provides the facilities to learn all religions with equanimity and equal respect. The Guru announced this at the end of the All Religions’ Meet held at Aluva Advaithashram, on the Sivarathri day of 1924. Guru laid the foundation stone for this institution in 1925 itself. The Brahmavidyalayam is built at the slope of the Mahasamadhi hill in oval shape, much later, which happens to be beside Samadhi mandiram. It was inaugurated on 31st December, 1970 , by Swami Shankarananda. It has a collection of rare religious scriptures and other spiritual works. Students who have an aptitude for spiritual education are selected and trained here under efficient ascetic teachers. The duration of the course is for 7 years and the syllabi include, the compositions of the Guru and the scriptures of all important religions of the world.
