Chairman Note

Note from Chapter Chairman ICAS, Noida Chapter

It is my privilege to welcome you to the ICAS Noida Chapter, a vibrant centre where ancient wisdom meets modern seekers.

Astrology, or Jyotish Shastra, transcends mere prediction. It is a cosmic journey that binds the individual to the universe. As one of the revered Vedangas, its lineage is sacred, yet its insights remain deeply relevant in guiding contemporary life. Our mission at ICAS Noida is to preserve this heritage, rendering it both accessible and meaningful for every earnest seeker.

What gives our chapter its unique spirit goes beyond a structured curriculum- it is the atmosphere of warmth, tradition, and familial bonds. Each session opens with sacred rituals-be it invigorating Chants, a sacred Havan, Puja, or Rudra Abhishek. On festivals and auspicious occasions, teachers and students come together in fellowship-transforming the classroom into a living guru–shishya parampara, where knowledge flows naturally and selflessly.

Our beloved faculty, drawn from all walks of life, serve not for remuneration but out of heartfelt dedication. Their voluntary commitment is a testament to the essence of true learning- knowledge offered purely, without expectations. This ethos nurtures an environment where sincerity, humility, and spiritual growth walk hand in hand with academic rigor.

Besides adhering to a structured timetable, periodically theme based seminars/webinars and special lectures by known astro savants, satiates the hunger for knowledge and sharpens the quality prediction amongst students and researchers alike. Presentation of research papers by faculty and research students help in faculty development, giving us the highly qualified competent faculty.

We also actively extend our reach through free astrology camps- bridging theory and practice. These initiatives allow us to engage with the community, offering guidance on education, career, relationships, and well-being. For our students, these camps become real-world laboratories- places to build confidence, compassion, and competence under the guidance of mentors.

As Chairman, I envision ICAS Noida not merely as a place of instruction but as a living, thriving community of seekers- anchored in tradition, enriched through research, and guided by the luminous wisdom of our rishis in true Guru Shishya Parampara. ‘Selfless Service’ is what we practice and follow as a motto.

Whether you come to study, seek guidance, or explore the deeper dimensions of Jyotish, you will find a deeply welcoming space here- a confluence of tradition and aspiration. And ultimately walkout a confident astrologer and a better human being.

I invite you to walk with us on this timeless journey, where the ancient light of astrology meets the aspirations of today.
