About Us
Mata Vaishno Devi Ji is a combination of her three forms viz. Mata Maha Saraswati, Mata Maha Lakshmi and Mata Maha Kali, which are manifested by the three Holy Pindis. As represented by our logo, from left to right are the Holy Pindis of Mata Maha Saraswati, Mata Maha Lakshmi and Mata Maha Kali in white, yellow and black respectively.

Each of these forms represents particular attributes of human beings.Maha Kali represents Tam Guna: Tam stands for darkness or ungodliness. It represents the attribute to never lose heart and constantly battle the forces of darkness till they prevail upon them.

Maha Lakshmi represents Raj Guna : Raj stands for sustenance, prosperity and well being. It represents the attribute to lead a comfortable and happy life through wealth and prosperity.

Maha Saraswati represents Satva Guna : Satva stands for purity and goodness. It represents the attribute to possess pure thoughts and a high intellect that helps people to distinguish between the good and the bad, between righteousness and unrighteousness and to adopt the correct path in life.

Each person on earth contains the attributes of Tam Guna, Raj Guna and Satva Guna in some degree or the other. His or her behavior is therefore, conditioned by the attribute that is predominant. However, to lead a full and meaningful life a balance has to be struck amongst the three. This balance is extremely difficult to achieve.
Through Vaishno Group of Colleges (Should be a hyperlink linking to www.vgoc.in) which are concern of Mata Vaishno Devi Educational Society, its management determines to inculcate a balanced amalgamate of the three Guns i.e Tam Guna, Raj Guna and Satva Guna in the students so that they can lead a full and meaningful life and hence can contribute in the development of the Nation and Mankind at large.
