About
Our Story
A volunteer-led spiritual and community group serving the Perth community in Western Australia.
Gayatri Pariwar Perth is a volunteer-led spiritual and community group in Perth, Western Australia. We come together for spiritual practice (sadhana), shared learning (swadhyaya), sacred ceremonies (sanskar and yagya), and service to the community (seva) — in a warm, welcoming spirit that is open to everyone.
Our inspiration comes from the worldwide All World Gayatri Pariwar (AWGP), a global movement founded by Pandit Shriram Sharma Acharya and carried forward with Vandaniya Mata Bhagwati Devi Sharma. At the heart of that tradition is Vedmata Gayatri — a universal prayer for the awakening of righteous wisdom. Our focus here is local: making it easy for people across Perth to come together, practise, learn, and serve.
[PLACEHOLDER — organisers to confirm local details such as regular gathering times.]
