The Thathvamasi Foundation is a Mumbai based charitable trust established with the good intention of spreading the universal and transcendental light of Sanatana Dharma all over the world, embodying the great spiritual beauty of Indian heritage. The foundation concentrates on a nine point action plan for its activities and among them two of the targets can be achieved through TheerthYatra.com. They are related to pilgrimage and travel and explained below.

The significance of the temples.
Temples were once the epicenter of Hindu culture. These Hindu temples, which were more than just places of worship, were meticulously scientific and skilled in construction and order. They were also the Dhrama centers that have faced the most foreign attacks in the world. Although these structures were able to survive physically after these destructive acts, they still have to survive the onslaught that continues intellectually to this day. To that end, let us undertake the task of reinventing and propagating these temples and their glory by visiting them.

The culture of pilgrimage.
The importance of pilgrimages to the survival of the Sanatana Dharma and the concept of Arshabharata was noteworthy. Even Jagadguru Adi Shankaracharya, who was born to establish Dharma when Dharma was damaged in the land of Arshabharata, realized the importance of pilgrimage. Following this, he implemented an action plan to develop a pilgrimage culture by connecting these sacred places in India. Today we experience the depth of Shankara's vision as we know that this same pilgrimage culture has preserved the concept of India intact, even through a thousand years of foreign slavery after Shankara. At a time when efforts are being made to divide India into fractions and to divide it into Aryan and Dravidian, we have to follow the path shown by Shankara again. To this end, we must take steps to make more and more Hindus pilgrims by disseminating information and descriptions of the holy places in India and facilitating the journeys made there.
