RISING OF A BETTER NATION..!!

Arya Samaj since its foundation by Swami Dayanand Saraswati during 18^th century has worked in making India a better place for all. Arya Samaj has played a major role in spreading the importance of education to all; irrespective of their gender or religion. They were the greatest contributors of education to women in India. They built homes for the widows and destitute women; accommodating and training them with skills so that they could earn a living for themselves.

Arya Samaj Mandir followers owe greatest credibility for the improved status of women in the modern India. They removed “Pardha System” bringing Indian women at par with the men. They contributed the most in giving social rights, rights to read Vedas, right to educate them, and to remarry to women in India. They also worked to remove dowry system and to give women the right to choose their partner.  Arya Samaj for the first time explained Indians the difference between “good governance” and independent rule” and instigated people to fight for their right and freedom. They educated people that begging was a curse and no one could ever gain anything by being on knees. They fought to unite people, to make them stand as a nation fighting for their right against the foreign rulers, sacrificing their lives for their nation.

Arya Samaj preaches people to lead a simple and a peaceful life. It focuses on following the Vedas to make a human’s life more meaningful and purposeful. Its mission since ages has been to make this nation stand united and strong, rising each day, free from the evils of the ancient India.

Arya Samaj Marriages: A Perfect Boon

When it comes to social norms and systems, India is still caught amidst the age old beliefs of caste system and superstitious traditions. These cast systems and beliefs also flow into the marriage culture in India.  Marriages in Arya Samaj help us to put this inter-caste marriage system behind us and to avoid pompous show-offs in weddings. The Arya Samaj marriage come refreshing new era and helps us to develop a holy, open and civilized culture around the world.

Today, on one hand where marriages have become a source of expenses and earnings show-off, we have Arya Samaj marriages on the other hand which have solemnized the entire ‘marriage tradition’ in India by liberation in expenses and other unnecessary rules and regulations. People from any caste or schedule can easily come to Arya Samaj Mandir and take vows with their beloved ones.  Marriages in Arya Samaj are good examples for people who believe in rituals rather than in making their weddings flamboyant act.

The procedure for Arya Samaj mandir is quite simple. Any Hindu or non-Hindu can come for his or her wedding and follow the Vedic rituals at the temple to get married with their soul mate. All marriages in Arya Samaj are equitable, whether it is love marriage, inter- religion marriage or inter-cast marriage.

Marriages in Arya Samaj are preformed under all social and legal acts according to the current law. Both the parties have to present their evidence certificates before wedding for processing their marriage.  Arya Samaj is continuously trying to erase all the social discrimination from the society by promoting the theme that that marriages are made in heaven and have nothing to do with money or anyone’s social status.
