“ईशा वास्यमिदं सर्वं यत्किञ्च जगत्यां जगत्‌। तेन त्यक्तेन भुञ्जीथा मा गृधः कस्यस्विद्धनम्‌” Īśāvāsya Upaniṣad 1.1″

Mahatma Gandhi said that “Even if all the Upanishad and other scriptures happened all of a sudden to be reduced to ashes, and if only this sloka were left in the memory of Hindus,Hinduism would live forever.”

At Asmakam Gram,We believe in the deep meaning and knowledge captured in the old Sanskrit verse : –

At Asmakam Gram, we live by a wise saying from ancient Sanskrit: “We believe that everything we see doesn’t belong to just one person, but to all of us together.” This idea guides everything we do in our community.

Our aim at Asmakam Gram is to promote a culture of care starting from our immediate surroundings and expanding outward to encompass larger communities, eventually embracing the entire world. We believe that by taking responsibility for the areas closest to us and gradually extending our efforts, we can create a positive impact on a global scale.

Local Environment: We begin by focusing on the area near our homes, ensuring that it is clean, green, and safe for everyone. This might involve initiatives such as organizing neighborhood clean-up drives, planting trees, or setting up community gardens. By nurturing our immediate environment, we foster a sense of pride and well-being among residents.

Community Engagement: Moving beyond individual homes, we extend our efforts to the broader society. This could involve collaborating with local authorities, schools, and businesses to address common challenges like waste management, pollution control, or improving infrastructure. Through community events, workshops, and awareness campaigns, we encourage active participation and collective action.

Neighborhood Improvement: As our initiatives gain momentum, we strive to make a tangible difference in the larger area surrounding our community. This might include renovating public spaces, creating recreational areas, or implementing sustainable development projects. By enhancing the quality of life in our neighborhood, we aim to inspire neighboring communities to join our cause.

Citywide Impact: Our ultimate goal is to contribute to the betterment of the entire city. We work towards influencing policy decisions, advocating for sustainable urban development, and promoting equitable access to resources and opportunities for all residents. Through partnerships with local governments, NGOs, and grassroots organizations, we strive to address systemic issues and foster inclusive growth.

National and Global Outreach: Recognizing that environmental and social challenges transcend geographical boundaries, we aspire to contribute to national and global initiatives for positive change. This might involve supporting nationwide conservation efforts, participating in international conferences on sustainable development, or collaborating with global networks to address pressing issues such as climate change, poverty, and inequality.

Cultural Transformation: Beyond tangible actions, our efforts aim to bring about a fundamental shift in mindset and behavior towards collective responsibility and stewardship. By promoting values of empathy, cooperation, and environmental consciousness, we seek to create a culture where caring for our planet and communities becomes a natural way of life for people everywhere.

In summary, our approach involves starting small, taking practical steps to improve our immediate surroundings, and gradually expanding our sphere of influence to create a ripple effect of positive change that extends from our homes to the entire world. Through collective action and a commitment to shared well-being, we believe that together, we can create a more sustainable and harmonious future for generations to come.
