User talk:Sevabharathi Tamilnadu

Sevabharathi Tamilnadu is a movement for Service. The basic inspiration is derived from the significant saying of Sri Ramakrishna Paramahamsa 'Shiva Bhave Jiva Seva', which inspired Swami Vivekananda to proclaim, “Serve man as the manifestation of God”. All Service rendered through Sevabharathi is ultimately aimed not only at eradicating the physical and other deprivations, but also at instilling in every person a sense of Self respect, Self confidence and Self reliance. This paves the way to establish a Modern, Progressive, Egalitarian Society where every person would feel happy and equal in all respects as a member of one national family, contributing his or her own share for the all-round development of our Motherland EDUCATION Free Tuition Centres Sevabharathi Tamilnadu conducts free tuition centres in backward areas and slums catering to the needs of students from backward, most backward and economically weaker sections.
