Building Peaceful Futures with Mission Lehar
Vibhushri Rivesh Vade
The Mauli For All Of Us
Since wars begin in the minds of men, it is in the minds of men that the defenses of peace must be constructed,” states UNESCO’s preamble—a guiding principle that resonates deeply with the mission of Bodhmarga Foundation and its visionary founder, Mr. Rivesh Vade, affectionately addressed as Vibhushri. His transformational journey, sparked by a near-death experience, redefined his life’s purpose: to bring the power of inner peace to the forefront of global harmony.
A former corporate professional with credentials in engineering and management from IIT Bombay, Vibhushri transcended his successful career to dedicate his life to empowering humanity. With over a decade of expertise in sound therapy and Nada Yoga, he has impacted tens of thousands globally, promoting emotional resilience, self-awareness, and equanimity. Realizing the profound need for accessible healing among underprivileged children—the future architects of our societies—he envisioned Mission Lehar, a transformative program that integrates sound yoga, theatre-in-education, and peace-building activities to nurture creativity, confidence, and compassion in marginalized school communities.
Mission Lehar addresses the root causes of childhood unrest—trauma, neglect, and exposure to violence—offering tools to restore emotional stability and foster self-leadership. Its ripple effect transforms not only individual lives but also the collective energy of families, schools, and communities. Through this initiative, Bodhmarga aims to bridge the gap between inner peace and global harmony, proving that empowered children today lead to a more harmonious world tomorrow.
