SPIC MACAY is an affirmation of :

A priceless cultural heritage,

SPIC MACAY seeks to conserve and promote an awareness of the rich and heterogeneous cultural tapestry amongst the youth of our country through focus on classical arts, with their attendant legends and philosophy, and to facilitate an awareness of their deeper and subtler values.

The pulsating and dynamic vitality of young people,

The movement incorporates this vitality to cajole them into being a custodian of what is actually their birthright, namely their heritage, roots, and identity. It seeks to provoke thought and a genuine spirit of inquiry in the young.

A solid value-based education,

Arts bring about the absorption of aesthetics and spirituality, which is unseen in this materialistic, technical based, mundane & competitive world. Spicmacay works to bring about a holistic education in spirit and character.

The effectiveness of voluntary work,

Spicmacay inculcate a spirit of service. This is, in fact, the hidden agenda of this movement. Volunteers come from all walks of life with varied aspirations and skills. They give some of their time to a cause for the larger good and outside of their immediate self-interest. The emphasis is on participation without hierarchy or formalism.

Holistic perspective,

The need for a more inspired and holistic perspective in a world bombarded by too much information. A unique feature of the heritage of India is its in-built characteristic of introspection and philosophy that transcends mere intellectualism.

Who is inspired and in turn inspires,

All that is beautiful, lofty and wholesome, of the sensitive, kind and gentle human being who is inspired and in turn inspires.
