Pilot School in 'Education for Total Consciousness '

The Isa Viswa Vidyalayam is a successful and unique school that brings out the inherent qualities of a child by integrating subjective and objective knowledge. 

Located in Trivandrum, Kerala, the Isa Viswa Vidyalayam is an English medium school, established in 1998 by His Holiness Swami Isa, as a pilot school for the Education for Total Consciousness (ETC) teaching methodology.

The 2021 session of the Global Energy Parliament was devoted to studying ETC and developing a global education policy out of it. (Go here for more information on the 127-page policy.)

The GEP Research Center is studying ETC Teaching Methodology for its efficacy.

At the Isa Viswa Vidyalayam, learning is never a burden. Whether learning mathematics, science, literature, or dance, students experience the immense joy that comes from deeply relating to what they are learning.

In addition to learning the national curriculum, all of the students learn English, Malayalam, Hindi, and Sanskrit. Each month they perform their lessons as creative programs. In addition, they have many extracurricular activities to grow and develop, including environmental projects, charity work, and clubs.

All children are welcome to Isa Viswa Vidyalayam, regardless of economic, religious or any other type of background.

 

The Practice of Interconnection ... 

ETC demonstrates to learners that the individual is a microcosm of the universe, and that their thoughts and actions have a significant effect on the world, as the world has an effect on them.

In ETC, the students link the topic to themselves. This is called integrated objective and subjective learning. The ‘object’ is anything in the outer world; the ‘subject’ is anything in their inner world such as their body, emotions, intellect, ego, and consciousness.

One example of objective knowledge about water would be that the Earth is composed of approximately 72% water. Subjective knowledge relating to this would be that the body’s liquid is also 72%. 

For education to be total, the objective and subjective planes of knowledge must be integrated.  

The core of ETC is to impart true and total knowledge to solve the conflicts in the individual and the world.

We are proud of the children who have studied in the ETC format, and are growing into loving, responsible, broad-minded, confident, and mindful members of society.

 

Vision

Through our unique methodology of Education for Total Consciousness:

     - Every lesson will impart knowledge about the objective reality (the outer world) with knowledge the subjective reality (one’s own self).  

     - Every student will attain complete knowledge, and will understand that he or she is a miniature of the universe.

     - This is a school for making real human beings. 

Values

     - Education is the fundamental tool for empowering human beings to realize their essential nature, the light and bliss of Total Consciousness.  Formal education in the school will impart a scientific methodology for assisting in this realization process.  

     - We are all a part of our environment, family, society, nation and world, and we love them as we love ourselves.
