Maharishi Dayanand was born on 12th February 1824 in Tankara, Gujarat, as Mool Shankar, Maharishi Dayanand Saraswati embarked on a spiritual quest from a young age. Disillusioned with ritualistic practices and idol worship, he sought a deeper understanding of Vedic knowledge. His relentless pursuit of truth led him to Swami Virajananda, under whose guidance he mastered the Vedas and other ancient scriptures. In 1875, Dayanand Saraswati founded the Arya Samaj, a socio-religious reform movement aimed at reviving Vedic dharma and eradicating social evils like caste discrimination, child marriage, and illiteracy. His clarion call of “Back to the Vedas” inspired countless individuals to embrace rationalism, humanism, and egalitarianism.
