KARNATAKA, INDIA, May 15, 2002: The Vikasan Foundation is organizing a summer camp for Hindu children from the US between the ages of 12 and 18, to be held at gurukulas, traditional religious schools, throughout Karnataka. Through the gurukula system the organizers hope to blend the Vedic wisdom of the ancients with the technology of the modern, namely computers/internet. The camp is being billed as a one of a kind, unique and wonderful opportunity to attend a summer camp that exposes US-raised Hindu children to the vast heritage of the Hindu culture. Daily activities will include yoga classes, Sanskrit chants, group activities and Indian games. Indian art workshops and performances are being planned for the campers, as well as field trips to historic sites in Karnataka.
