Life Transformation through Peace and Education

B.A.

Dr. Vishwanath D. Karad’s View

Our Visionary Founder’s passion has always been to create an educational system that blends science &

spirituality. He advocates that Peace is not just a concept or theory; “Peace is to be Practiced and

Experienced.”

Peace in Education

Education without values & ethics is meaningless and could even be dangerous to the society.

At WPU, we aspire to make our student contribute to the global sustainable peace and welfare of humanity.
