According to Sri Pant, Sant Gyaneshwar (1275 - 1296 AD) is the father of the Indian Renaissance. With his "Gyaneshwari," Sant Gyaneshwar, at the tender age of 14 years for the first time brought the eternal message of The Bhagwad Gita to the common masses through metaphoric verses in exquisite Marathi. The next major effort at bringing the eternal message of the Vedas was undertaken at the ripe age of 76 years by Goswami Tulsi Das in the 17th century AD through his "Ram Charit Manas" through exquisite versing in Awadhi. The Bhagwad Gita was to later become the gospel of the Indian freedom movement, to inspire great leaders like Lok Manya Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Mahatma Gandhi. At REACHA we are aligned with his vision and mission to strengthen the country. Self improvement being the first step.
