Her Holiness Shri Mataji Nirmala Devi established Shri P. K. Salve Kala Pratishthan, an academy of Indian Classical Music and Fine Arts, at Vaitarna.
Vaitarna is surrounded by Dams and Lakes in the vicinity of scenic greenery, is about 100 kms from Mumbai and about 80 kms from Nashik off National Highway 3 (Mumbai Agra Highway), and accessible from Khardi Railway Station (25kms) of the Central Railways.
The Institution is situated within an area of 62 acres of land comprising of streams and natural landscape. Modak Sagar and Tansa Dams are in the vicinity with a thick reserved forest cover.
Students from diverse cultures across the globe, have experienced their untapped potential flourishing. Through their holistic understanding of Sahaja Yoga, one of the precious gifts by our holy Mother to the mankind, they have gained/achieved distinctive insight while learning music and art at the Academy.
Shri Mataji's advice during Inauguration of Academy
Every country has its own problems, but we have something very great with us is our music. Not musicians, but music. So the musicians should take to Sahaja Yoga. They should meditate. And if a musician is money-oriented, then you cannot help him. Either he should be music-oriented, and not money-oriented. When they are money-oriented, they never value themselves, I think. Because if you have music, the talent of music, why should you care for money? And whatever money you give them, they’ll be never satisfied. I have seen very great musicians who were never, never money-oriented, who didn’t care for power.
