THE BIGGEST DOME IN THE WORLD

The concept and creation of the world's biggest dome, in the words of its visionary creator and architect, Revered Prof. Dr. Vishwanath Karad

Union of science/ spirituality will alone bring peace and harmony to mankind 

Friends,

​

You are fully aware that the entire world is passing through a tense and chaotic stage, even worse than what was experienced during the two world wars. The present one is also a war, war between good and evil, sacrifice and greed, virtues and vices, tolerance and stubbornness, religious co-existence and fundamentalism, traditional time-tested values and quick gains and ego, and so on. The various issues involved are not only local i.e. restricted to one’s own country, but are global as well.

​

The world is witnessing mind-boggling scientific and industrial developments like artificial intelligence, internet, IT, digital technology, robotics, journey to the outer space and what not on the one hand and on the other, unfortunately, there is total chaos, confusion, suspicion, terrorism, bloodshed, violence and massacre in the name of caste, creed, race, religion and trifle issues like boundaries of nations. The family system, which is vital for the survival of the mankind, is also on the rocks. 

PHILOSOPHER SAINT SHRI DNYANESHWARA

WORLD PEACE LIBRARY & WORLD PEACE PRAYER HALL

​

Presently known to be the largest dome in the world, the remarkable monument has a diameter of 160 feet. With only 24 pillars as the foundation, the structure can  accommodate more than  3,000 people at any given time. Connecting back to the philosophy  of  Philosopher  Sant  Dnyaneshwara that the world we live in and perceive is not merely an illusion, but a manifestation of the ultimate reality/ the truth – the Almighty God, that lies beyond the perception of senses and the grasp of logic, the dome  is  an enlightened  edifice  in entirety.

​

The dome houses a library at the base and a prayer hall above, with 54 bronze statues of revered  scholars, saints, scientists, philosophers and gurus. The library covers an unbelievable expanse of 62,500 sq. ft. and is a testament of the knowledge and  wisdom  that  India  as  a  country  holds  and disseminates. The center of the dome houses the meditation  center,  from  where  all  the  divine energy  and  positivity  emanates.  Eight  grand pillars at the core represent the life-sustaining and enriching systems that propagate the core values of life and existence such as Yoga, Vipassana,

​

Namaaz,  Prayer  etc.  The  meditation  center  is designed with a purpose to scientifically balance the seven chakras of the human body and align the self with the universal forces that drive the mind, soul and entire existence. This is because the life force, or 'prana', that moves inside of everybody is spinning and rotating. This spinning energy  has  seven  centers  in  the  body,  called 'chakras'  starting  at  the  base  of  the  spine  and moving  towards  the  crown  of  the  head.  In  a healthy,  balanced  person,  the  seven  chakras provide exactly the right amount of energy to be very part of the body, mind and spirit , synchronizing the body with the higher universal forces.  The  ensuing  12  pillars  symbolize  the religious  duty  that  humans  abide  by  –  duty towards  the  mother,  father,  family,  society,  the Nation and the world. They represent the 12 major religions that have thrived and transformed the word – Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism,  Judaism,  Zoroastrianism, Baha'i, Taoism, Shintoism and Confucianism.
