Who we are
Established in September 2010, The Karpagadaru Trust aims to spread life-changing inner transformation in people and lead them to the knowledge of the Ultimate Truth and existence with very simple practices. The non-profit organisation was founded by Gnana Gurunathar Shree L.L.S Manikghandan, a disciple of Vethathri Maharishi, with the blessings of Sadhus from Thiruvannamalai. Building on Gnana Gurunathar vision and service, the Trust is growing noticeably and contributing to global changes. The Trust is dedicated to education and charitable activities to spread peace, happiness and harmony. The Trust offers tutelage in multiple locations, including Vellore, Wallajahpet, Valparai, Salem, Madurai, Coimbatore, Tiruppur, Gurunathapuram and Chennai.
What we do
