Isa Viswa Vidyalayam
The Isa Viswa Vidyalayam is an award-winning school implementing a holistic, experiential and integrated learning system by the name of 'Education for Total Consciousness’, developed by His Holiness Jagadguru Swami Isa. The CBSE-syllabus school is accredited to the Govt of India up to Senior Secondary courses. In 2023, Isa Viswa Vidyalayam celebrates 25 years of education!
Situated in peaceful Anayara, Thiruvananthapuram, students are growing up under the loving guidance of their teachers, whom we call Gurumas. Classes are places of discovery and creativity, where lessons are never about memorization and regurgitation but about the true joy of learning.
We specialize in 4 languages -- English, Malayalam, Hindi, and Sanskrit -- and developing creative expressions of every lesson. Social work, public performances, and co-curricular activities all contribute to the school's vibrant atmosphere.
Isa Viswa Vidyalayam was awarded with the Indywood Excellence Award for "Best Innovative Educational Philosophy" in 2021, in recognition of the success of Education for Total Consciousness.
Run by the charitable Isa Viswa Prajnana Trust, Isa Viswa Vidyalayam welcomes children of all communities and backgrounds in an inclusive, holistic, humanistic learning environment.

We Believe ...
... that Education is the fundamental tool for empowering human beings to realize their essential nature, the light and bliss of Total Consciousness. Even in the classroom itself, this is achievable through the scientific methodology of Education for Total Consciousness.
... that we are all a part of our environment, family, society, nation and world, and we love them as we love ourselves.
... that teachers should be the embodiment of the Mother’s love, Father’s care and Guru’s knowledge.
... that students are perfection waiting to be uncovered, shining Consciousness yet to be realized.

Education for Total Consciousness
Education for Total Consciousness is designed to help students understand the connection between themselves and everything around them.
ETC demonstrates to learners that the individual is a microcosm of the universe, and that their thoughts and actions have a significant effect on the world, as the world has an effect on them.
In ETC, the students link the topic to themselves. This is called integrated objective and subjective learning. The ‘object’ is anything in the outer world; the ‘subject’ is anything in their inner world such as their body, emotions, intellect, ego, and consciousness.
One example of objective knowledge about water would be that the Earth is composed of approximately 72% water. Subjective knowledge relating to this would be that the body’s liquid is also 72%.
For education to be total, the objective and subjective planes of knowledge must be integrated.
The core of ETC is to impart true and total knowledge to solve the conflicts in the individual and the world.
We are proud of our alumni who have grown into loving, responsible, broad-minded, confident, and mindful members of society.
Not only is Education for Total Consciousness practiced in our school, it is now widely promoted by educationalists throughout India and abroad. Numerous features of ETC appear in India's new National Education Policy 2020, especially related to the holistic development of learners.

Creative Expression
Creative Project of a Science lesson on Lunar Phases
For lessons to be well 'digested' by a student, it must find its way into their mind and body. Nothing learnt merely in theory is completely learnt; it must become an emotional or a practical experience.
At Isa Viswa Vidyalayam, textbook lessons in each discipline are made into creative presentations which the students perform each month. Mathematics lessons become dances, science becomes music, geography becomes poetry ... all in the talented and creative hands of the children and gurumas. Once they learn the lesson in this way, it becomes a part of them, and they never forget it!
