A Strong Resolution to Defeat Hunger

In Indian culture, food is revered as Brahman itself. It not only satisfies the hunger of the body but also serves as the fundamental basis of sustaining life. It is through food that the soul is preserved. In this spirit, the Annapurna Yojana, run by Vishwa Jagriti Mission, stands as a vital initiative for the restoration of Sanatan traditions — one where the service of humanity is paramount, and every hungry being is fed with devotion.

This initiative was born from the compassion-filled vision of Param Pujya Shri Sudhanshu Ji Maharaj. When he realized that a society moving forward on the path of spiritual development does not only require meditation, sadhana, and service but also liberation from hunger, he laid the foundation of the Annapurna Yojana within VJM to fulfill this divine objective.

Purpose of Annapurna Yojana: Food Service is Dharma


In Sanatan Dharma, food donation is considered the highest form of charity. According to the scriptures, feeding a hungry soul is not just about physical nourishment, but also about satisfying the inner spirit and accumulating divine merit.

Food protects life and is the source of vitality. To fulfill this sacred purpose, Vishwa Jagriti Mission operates the Annapurna Yojana to ensure every needy individual receives a nutritious meal.
