ERAWS stands for the Education, Relief and Welfare Section of Ananda Marga. It is the supervising body of all Ananda Marga projects around the world concerning education, relief and welfare.
The motto of AMSAI’s philosophy of education is “sa vidya ya vimuktaye”, meaning, “knowledge is that which liberates.”
The triangle pointing upwards symbolizes knowledge and action (energy) in the external world (physico-psychic existence). Through proper knowledge and action, one gets to liberate oneself from the fetters and limiting capacities of the human mind. One’s higher truth (that is, being a part and parcel of the universal consciousness) is revealed and realized, thus, enabling one to attain his highest and truest potentials. Attaining this is the only true victory.
The swastika symbolizes perfection. Swastika is a Sanskrit word meaning “good life” (su meads “good” and Astika “exist in”). The swastika then, is a symbol of true permanent spiritual victory.
