Shraddha & Seva Program
"Shraddham yajmaan aupasate vindatevasu"
Shraddha brings prosperity to yajmaans — Rig Veda 10/151/4"Aham vrishtim Daashushe"
To the donors, I provide abundantly — Rig Veda 4/26/2"Family that prays together, eats together and serves together, stays together."
Being Yajman & Volunteer is the adopted working model for practical applications of Shraddhaa & Seva tenets at DAVSS/ASGH. The objective is to create a mindset — in students & parents — which is conducive to proper, continuous and all-round development of children.

Process
How to Participate
Suggested Donation: Arya Samaj provides and arranges food for Rishi-Langar on behalf of the Yajmaan. A minimum suggested donation of $351.00 per Yajmaan is recommended. The amount barely covers food costs for the day and does not suffice to cover other expenses incurred by Arya Samaj. This donation is currently suspended until Arya Samaj returns to in-person services. For details, visit www.aryasamajhouston.org.
