In August 2023, Kurma Vedic Village, located in the Srikakulam district of Andhra Pradesh, India, was steeped in Vedic culture. The 70 residents in the village embraced minimalistic life and achieved self-sufficiency through land, cattle, and Krsna consciousness. They renounced modern conveniences such as electricity, internet access, and cooking gas in favour of traditional agricultural methods, village technologies, clothes made from handloom, and barter systems for transactions, which led to a simple life of sustainability and self-sufficiency. Kurma Vedic Village relied on funding from devotees and guests to the village for its continuing service. It also provided traditional Vedic education to students in Vedic Mathematics, Mahabharata, English, Telugu, Sanskrit, and life skills such as carpentry, animal husbandry, weaving, and traditional constructions. However, it was facing various challenges related to funding, scaling, and geographic expansion. How could Kurma Vedic Village overcome the challenges and promote Vedic culture and lifestyle across India?
