JIVA, or Jeeyar Integrated Vedic Academy, was established in 2005 to protect and promote Vedic literature and values. JIVA was established to commemorate HH Srimannarayana Pedda Jeeyar Swamiji’s centennial celebrations. Covering an area of 53 acres, JIVA contains not only a Ve:dic Gurukulam, but also computer labs, JIMS hospitals, a go:sa:la, Ne:thra Vidya:laya (school for visually challenged), and even we have a Homeopathic Degree College now.

JIVA is working towards demonstrating and applying our Vedic wisdom and practices through a modern context so that it is applicable to one and all. Research projects are being planned to relate modern science with Vedic principles thereby showcasing our ancient knowledge as the foundation for most of today’s inventions and discoveries.
