Since its formation in 1976, the Bhaktivedanta Institute’s mission has been to scientifically establish that life and matter originate from life. The founder and Serving Director of our Princeton Bhakti Vedanta Institute, Bhakti Madhava Puri, Ph.D., was one of five founding charter members of the original BI. The Princeton BVISCS opened in 2012. Through annual international conferences, a variety of web content such as blogs and email groups, and weekly community programs, the Bhakti Vedanta Institute continues to provide educational resources for the public. Based on the teachings of Hegel's Conceptual Realism and the Bhagavat Vedanta philosophy, our institute advocates the Synthesis of Science and Religion, and the Role of Consciousness in Modern Science.
