Banasthali Vidyapith (University) aims at the blend of spiritual value of the East and scientific spirit of the West. Its main thrust of all the activities is the development of a complete personality.

The institution firmly believes that the personality consists of interdependent components, each being equally important requiring equal attention and can only be developed through a wholesome education.

The Panchmukhi Shiksha which has grown from experimentation, attempts a balance among 5 necessary aspects of education: Physical, Practical, Aesthetic, Moral and Intellectual.
