Welfare of Elderly
On his spiritual journey, Pujya Bapu observed that the Indian society was going through changes similar to the Western countries. The joint family system was giving way to nuclear units which outcast senior citizens. Some of these senior citizens were facing challenging situations when they were outcast especially when their health was failing and the time when they needed affection, care and self dignity most. Wealthy elders living in towns and cities could find a residential home to take care of them. But those living in villages were in a pitiful situation and in many instances were living miserable lives sometimes on their own. Hence, thoughts of creating homes to care for the elderly took roots.
