Vasantraoji Gadgil is guiding ABBM. As the Kulaguru of ABBM, he is fully dedicated to service. The Brahmin society can flourish in religion, knowledge, art and culture under his able guidance.

SOCIAL STRUCTURE
“Dharmo Rakshati Rakshatah”

Dharma protects the one who protects Dharma. The path of truth, love, and justice is the path of religion. The ultimate truth can be realized only in the light of religion. By following the path of religion and doing good deeds, the cultured citizen makes the society and the nation strong and organized. The progress, awakening, revolution, peace of the society lies in the unity, integrity and harmony of the nation. At present, the whole society is looking towards Brahmins with this expectation. Inspired by this auspicious feeling and auspicious work, ABBM has been established to unite the entire Brahmin society. Brahmins settled within the country and abroad have the responsibility of making the dignity and sacred tradition of their Indian culture global and keeping it intact.

By uniting them in a well-planned manner and tying them into one Brahmasutra, we have to create an innovative structure of a new Brahmin society for the awakening of the nation through Brahma-thinking and Brahma-karma. We have to establish our importance in all political, spiritual, social, political and economic fields. For this, contribution of all the members of Brahmin community of every region, state and nation is expected at every level. We have to stand under one flag, group, organization and fulfill the saying 'Vayam Rashtra Jagriyam Purohitaah'. Various plans are being made by our organization in this direction.

The role of Brahmins, sages and priests in our society is to provide education, to perform yagya rituals, worship at temples, abhishek, various rites, and doing sankirtan etc. There has been a huge change in the social thinking and action system in the new the new era. So accordingly, thinkers, ritual priests, ritualists, priests, storytellers, etc. of the Brahmin caste will also have to adopt practices as per the times.

Tirtha, Ashram, Aranyaka, Gurukul, Devalaya are the pillars of Indian culture. The responsibility of their protection and nourishment also lies with the Brahmin community. From this point of view, there are many Veda Pathshalas, Gurukul- Sanskarshalas and temples, ashrams, pilgrimages, monasteries in every corner of the country guiding through Katha- Teaching-Training. On all such important issues, there will be immense need for the good advice, cooperation, protection and guidance of our most revered Shankaracharya Saint, Mahant, Mathadhish, religious gurus and yoga gurus. To put them into action, special efforts will have to be made in the spiritual field.

Aspecial initiative has to be started to raise the social status of the people belonging to the Brahmin community. Of every person in the society, standard of living should be improved. May they be blessed with happiness. Their level of lifestyle and mentality should rise. Every member of Brahmin Community should become a civilized, cultured and good citizen.
The expenditure in various religious functions viz., Upanayana, marriage, festivals etc. is very high. A common man cannot bear this burden. Therefore, the progressive traditions of mass upanayana, mass marriage, festivals, rituals etc. have to be especially encouraged in our society. ABBM encourage and honor exceptionally talented young people who have done remarkable work in various fields of our society so that many brothers and sisters of the society can take inspiration from them and move forward on the path of good life. Monthly magazines, souvenirs and literature are created to expand the network of the organisation and to spread information about ABBM's achievements to the public.

Academic

In the ancient culture in India, best Gurukuls were prevalent in India. At that time, human culture had not even developed in the western countries. It is essential to create a good education system by combining the ancient Indian education system and the new education system. The multi-skilled ancient Gurukul system has to be revived. In this direction, ABBM will continue to make efforts to create high quality teachers, professors, doctors, administrators, lecturers, scientists, engineers and experts in 64 other arts through creating an excellent educational system. ABBM will provide higher technical education with nominal fee, preparatory training for the competitive examination jointly with Youth Cell, Bureaucrat Cell of ABBM and Connect India IAS Academy. Guidance will be given through guides or retired administrative officers. Mr. Harshad Bele, a former IPS officer is leading this initiative.

Financial strengthening is extremely essential in building strong foundation of ABBM. In these lines, a heartfelt invitation is being given to all the Brahmins of the country and abroad for becoming member of ABBM. Many generous people and entrepreneurs should come forward to make the organization strong and capable. An appeal is being made to be an ally, member and provide employment, security, support, encouragement to poor Brahmin. The organization also has to create a permanent financial fund for this purpose. ABBM has planned to connect with banks, cooperative institutions, social institutions etc. so that there will not be any financial hindrance or hindrance in the development and progress of the entire

Political

To facilitate a mechanism to bring back the Brahmin community members to main political stream who are being thrown out of the political sphere at a very fast pace. As the policy decisions are being taken in the core power centres like Lok Sabha and Vidhan Sabha hence to take some measures for the Brahmins to devote themselves in various political streams and create an existence of Brahmins in the political sphere again. If there are no community members in politics, many policy decisions can be taken against the welfare of Brahmin society. Therefore, some members of the society need to keep themselves in the political stream. Establishing the necessary organizational structure for the same is one agenda of ABBM. To train such potential candidates systematically as well as to create a study group under political experts for proper political guidance.

Brahmin community.

Entrepreneurship Development: - Aatm-Nirbhar Brahman Project

Setting up Vocational Training Centers

UPSC Exam Preparatory Training

Constructing Brahman Bhavan in selected metropolitan Cities

Setting up Ved Pathshala and Goshala

Scholarship to Brahmin students for Education

1. Aatm-Nirbhar Brahman Project
ABBM has undertaken the ‘Aatm-Nirbhar Brahmin Project’ to develop / support at least 3000 entrepreneurs in next three years. Under this project necessary support will be given to the aspiring Brahmin youths to start a business through necessary training, mentoring support and linkages. Selected Entrepreneurs will be given Rs. 50,000/- to start new business. In case of the project cost is above Rs. 50000/-, ABBM will help the entrepreneur to get loan from bank. The entrepreneur will have to invest only up to 10 % of the project. This project will facilitate entrepreneurial culture in the Brahmin community and develop more entrepreneurs and confidence to do sustainable business.

2. Setting up Vocational Training Center
ABBM will help the budding entrepreneurs by giving vocational and skill training. For this purpose, Vocational Training Centers will be developed in various cities. The skilling laboratories will be developed based on local demand. These centers will act as vocational hubs for the local entrepreneurs. Expert faculties in selected trades will guide the trainees. The trades will be like Fashion Designing, Food Processing, Beauty and Health, Mobile repairing and so on. The trainees will have an access to the library, knowledge source and business related information. We propose to train around 500 trainees per year per center.

3. UPSC Exam Preparatory Training:
The role of bureaucrats in social development and policy making can't be denied. Hence ABBM will offer free UPSC Exam Preparatory Training to the aspirant Brahmin candidates. Besides free training, these candidates will be provided accommodation and food free of cost. Renowned Brahmin bureaucrats, IAS / IPS Officers will be invited as a speakers for guidance to these candidates. The candidates who will get selected as IAS / IPS will have sense of gratitude towards the Brahmin Community for such help and they will likely support the Brahmin Community in future. We propose to offer UPSC training to 500 aspirant candidates in next five years.

4. Hostels for Brahmin students
An economical accommodation in big cities for the students from rural area is a big problem. It deprives deserving students from access to quality education. Hence we are planning to setup hostels for Brahmin Students at very minimal charges. The buildings will be taken on rent for this purpose. Around 500 students will be accommodated in these hostels.

5. Setting up Ved Pathshala and Goshala
Many Brahmin Families wish their children to get Vedadhyayan. In a view to preserve our rich heritage, it is necessary to develop more and more learned Vedpathi. Hence we wish to setup Vedpathshala where Brahmin Children from the age of 8 years will be given Ved Shiksha. Learned Vedpathi Pandits will be entrusted the responsibility of teaching. Students will also learn "Yadnik' in detail, which is essential for Karmanushthana. Vedpathshala will have a facility to appear for Std. X to enable the aspirant students to pursue formal education. Free accommodation and food will be provided to the students. Goshala will be setup in the same premises to support the Vedpathshala.

6. Scholarship to Brahmin students for Education
Many Brahmin Families don't have a financial capability to provide quality education to their children. We propose to give scholarship to selected students for pursuing education. The objective of this initiative is that no deserving student should be deprived from the educational opportunity due to lack of funds.
