3 - Year Plan for Phase - I According to Youth Vision It is well known that Shantikunj has been striving hard to organize dedicated and energetic young men and women from all walks of life who are ready to participate enthusiastically in the making of the nation. The objective is to prepare prudent, honest, responsible and brave young men and women and properly utilize their talents and energies in creative tasks. In order to develop the spirit of cooperation with society amongst the youth, our Mission devoted full two years (2016 and 2017) in organizing various youth camps/ expos/events at national as well as international levels. It is interesting to note that youths in very large numbers participated enthusiastically in all these programs and they are now ready to take up new responsibilities. With this view, we are seeking the involvement of youth in different activities during phase – I (and beyond) of Matrushakti Shraddhanjali Mahapurashcharan. Point-wise list of activities, in brief, is given as follows: 
1. Expansion of sadhana-centered activities: In order to maintain personal integrity and earn pranic energy, it is advised that our youth volunteers should do upasana daily. At least, japa (chanting) of 5 malas of Gayatri Mantra or writing 50 mantras in mantra lekhan book or reciting Gayatri Chalisa 5 times is needed daily. Regularity in this routine is very essential. 2. Yagya movement: In a massive movement to make yagya reach every home, there is a plan to perform yagyas in one crore homes in the coming 3 years. Starting with a ‘Balivaishwa Yagya’ let us perform one or five-kundi yagya in the every house. If the oblations of Gayatri mantra and Maha Mrityunjay mantra are given daily, one can perceive the transformation that will come over the society in just three years. This is an easy experiment and can be accomplished by everyone quite conveniently. These yagyas will not only rejuvenate the families but also purify the atmosphere. 
3. Come! Let us nurture a generation that is endowed with sanskaras: In this program, we plan to organize special workshops / camps for couples and other members in the family. Sanskaras like Punsavana (Womb ceremony), Namakaran, Annaprashan, Mundan, Vidyarambha, Deeksha, celebration of birthdays and wedding anniversaries should be performed. Through these family-linked activities, noble sanskaras will be instilled in people. This global movement will go a long way in introducing and popularizing the concept of sanskaras.
4. Providing momentum to creative activities: a. Bhagirathi jalabhishek yojana –In this program, we will intensify our participation in ‘Ganga Safai Abhiyan’ (Ganga Cleaning Program). The plan is to form Ganga Pragya Mandals and arrange meetings near 51 tributaries of the river. Along with this, we will also focus on constructing Shriram Sarovars and do intensive campaigning to encourage water harvesting. This program will also include regular cleaning of water sources and supervising them. 
b. Vriksha Ganga Abhiyan – Apart from extensive tree plantation, it is planned to establish several Shriram Smriti Upavans at tehsil or district level. This has been one of our successful experiments and we have completed 250 such gardens so far. Our goal is to establish 24000 memorial gardens by the year 2026. c. Expansion of Bala Sanskarshalas – We should extend the bala sanskarshalas to one lakh places with minimum of 25 children in each. 
1. Establishing Sanskriti Mandals in 1 lakh schools – If we are able to achieve this goal in the next 3 years, the coming generation of youth will be endowed with divine qualities. Also, our Bharatiya Sanskriti Gyan Pariksha will need to reach out to 2 lakh more schools. 
2. Establishing one thousand Gram Teerths – Each village should be transformed into a Gram teerth. It should have one Chaupal (a community space or building) and a satsang mandal. 
3. Organize ‘Divine Workshops’ in one lakh schools/colleges – This will instill new zeal in the minds of young men and women. These students will join our mission as committed volunteers after being equipped with the life skills. It is extremely important that the young generation takes selfless interest in social welfare activities. 
4. Compassion oriented activities in shaktipeeths – Well-developed shaktipeeths may arrange to provide food to the disabled or the poor admitted in hospitals; they may also arrange for the medicines in genuine cases. 5. Establish Aranyakas in forest areas –It is planned to conduct training workshops for self-reliance of vanvasis. We should also have “Swavlambi loksevi mandals’ in such places so that employment generation is made possible. We should also conduct programs related to education, health, selfreliance, and social awakening. 
6. Vyasan Mukti Andolan – De-addiction programs taken up by our Mission should be conducted across the nation. These activities have caught momentum mainly in Uttar Pradesh and few other places. But we need to increase its pace and give it a form of revolution. 
7. Kanya Kaushal – Kishore Kaushal – Sanskar Shivirs: These should be conducted in each district. There should also be regular regional-level gatherings. 
8. Shaktipeeth Anniversaries: Each Shaktipeeth should celebrate its annual function in keeping with the tradition of the Mission and resolve to develop the Shaktipeeth as a center for realizing the dreams of Param Pujya Gurudev. 
9. Devparivar Nirman Satra: It is the need of the hour that the families of our volunteers should get connected to Gayatri Parivar. Their sons, daughters-in-law, daughters and sons-in-law should get connected. With this purpose, 2-3 day Dev Parivar Nirman satra should be conducted in various places. 
10. Cow-based farming and development of cow-based products: We should focus our attention on these topics and ensure good participation of others. The economy of our nation is based on farming. If we want to improve it, this is the only way forward 
11. Translation and publication of Yug Sahitya in various Indian and foreign languages: This will help us in bringing knowledge revolution in the whole world. 
12. Akhand Jyoti Magazine: We should increase our subscriber base to five times its current number in the coming three years. Presently, this magazine (Hindi and its translations in other languages) reaches 1.2 million homes. By 2020, we should reach out to 6 million. This is not an impossible task. We should all strive to achieve this goal. 
13. Pragya Pustakalay (Libraries): We should start Pragya libraries containing inspiring literature (Yug Sahitya) in one lakh villages. This will be a very important activity; and more dedicated volunteers will be required for this work. 
14. Social Media: We should use social media extensively to publish our bulletins and use it for our publicity. This is our initial proposal. We will continue to refine and add more activities as time goes by.
