Learning to say it right

Sanskrit can feel distant to children who grow up in America. Our teachers use quizzes, word games, gestures and repetition so that each shloka is understood, not only memorized.

02

Technology with values

Our sessions show young people how to use AI tools to learn and create, while understanding their limitations. The values come from the Geeta; the examples come from their everyday experiences.

Volunteers in small teams

From 2024 our work has been run by Team11s: small groups of volunteers who share the teaching, hosting, calls and logistics for each class and event.

Sneh Milans in New Jersey and the Bay Area and the Bhakti Milan in Houston in June 2025 were planned and run by these teams.

Recognized outside our own circle

Several employers support our work through employee matching donations.

In December 2025 we held Geeta Jayanti at the Vitthal Rukmini Temple together with the Consulate General of India in Houston.

Our inspiration

“Holistic knowledge of Indian culture is consolidated in the Bhagavad Geeta. Geeta is the beautiful expression of yogic science explained by Bhagawan Shri Krishna himself, who is known as Yogeshwar.”
