30 Years of Celebration
Soul Searchers Trust is a sanctuary for inner awakening, conscious living, and the quiet transmission of lived wisdom.
Celebrating 30 years of Formation of the Soul Searchers Trust
March 2026 marks three decades since the inception of Soul Searchers Trust. Founded by Adi Maitreya Rudrabhayananda Ji on March 21, 1996, the organization has served as a beacon for those seeking to "Delve Deep and Find Your True Self."
Avasi Adva 2026 is more than an anniversary; it is a global gathering of seekers, scientists, and artists dedicated to the science of consciousness and the preservation of ancient wisdom.
Spirituality and Sound are inseparable. At the Bengaluru chapter of Avasi Adva 2026, held at The Sabha, we were honored to collaborate with the Shankar Mahadevan Academy.
The event featured soul-stirring performances by the Academy's faculty and students, bridging the gap between technical mastery and spiritual devotion. In recognition of their contribution to "The Resonance of Inner Authority," students and faculty were felicitated with the Avasi Adva Kit Bag and Certificates of Merit.

Our Endeavours
Annadaan is considered as Mahadaan for giving food is like sharing love of divine with everyone around.
Kindly come forward, support us and help us out in our endeavour to bring smiles to the faces of children and people who need us as much as we need them to be part of our life.
We look forward in seeing all your support as donation in cash or kind, volunteering and supporting the way to a better future
Akshara Prakalpa is an initiative of Soul Searchers Trust that focuses mainly on all-round development of
children, namely, physical, emotional, mental, intellectual and spiritual. Today, peer and parental
pressure forces children to focus more on scoring grades and excelling in a highly competitive academic
scenario. What they lose out is innocence in the process. Akshara Prakalpa works towards making a
difference in the lives of people around by letting the society, parents, school management and the
children themselves know that life is not about scoring grades alone or earning a good salary packet
later on. While money is important for survival, a fulfilling and contented way of living life comes from
being aware of our connection to the nature, divine and mainly our own selves.
For 30 years, since the founding of Soul Searchers Trust on March 21, 1996, our mission has extended beyond the walls of meditation halls and into the cold nights of the streets. Driven by the vision of Adi Maitreya Rudrabhayananda Ji, we believe that spiritual growth is incomplete without selfless service (Seva).
Our winter relief initiative is a pan-India effort, bridging the geographical divide to provide warmth where it is needed most.
North India: From the biting chills of Delhi to the frost-laden regions of the Indo-Gangetic plains, our volunteers reach out to the homeless, the elderly, and those in remote villages who brave the harshest winters.
South India: While the climate differs, the need for protection against the damp, monsoon-driven winters of the Deccan and the coastal belts remains a priority for the marginalized communities we serve.
A blanket is a simple object, but to someone shivering under the open sky, it is a shield, a sanctuary, and a message that they have not been forgotten.
At Soul Searchers, our blanket distribution is not just an act of charity; it is a Recognition of Dignity. Every blanket handed over is an acknowledgement of the shared spark of consciousness within us all.
Founded: March 21, 1996
Reach: 27+ Cities and Villages across North and South India.
Impact: Tens of thousands of lives shielded from the elements over three decades.
The Goal for 2026: In honour of our 30th Anniversary (Avasi Adva 2026), we are expanding our reach to ensure that no seeker—and no human being—is left in the cold.
As we celebrate 30 years of Soul Searchers, we invite you to be part of this legacy. Your contribution ensures that the flame of compassion continues to burn bright, even in the coldest winters.
