Year 2006 marked the 100th birth anniversary of Shri Madhav Sadashivrao Golwalkar. His vision has inspired a multitude of organizations in India and around the world to work for peace and
upliftment of mankind.

On this occasion ICCS, in collaboration with its forum – World Council of Elders of the Ancient Traditions and Cultures (WCEATC) held an international conference with the theme of “Spirituality Beyond Religions”. The conference strived to bring to the fore the spiritual concepts of ancient global traditions and religions that were universal in appeal and helped human civilization sustain itself through ages without conflicts. More than 300 representatives from 42 countries participated in the conference held at Jaipur, India (more details).
