Turning Inward
A series of five books for children from Grade 1 to Grade 5, carrying the timeless wisdom of India's own knowledge traditions into a child's everyday life.
EXPLORE THE SERIESA series of five books for children from Grade 1 to Grade 5, carrying the timeless wisdom of India's own knowledge traditions into a child's everyday life.
EXPLORE THE SERIESTo meet themselves. To discover what's already there. In a world of constant noise and stimulation, the most important thing a child can develop is a quiet, grounded sense of who they are, their values, their imagination, their capacity to pay attention.
India's knowledge traditions understood this deeply. Antarmukha brings that understanding into a child's everyday life.
Antarmukha is a carefully sequenced series of five textbooks for primary school children, built around yoga, story, art, and traditional play.
Each book carries the timeless values of Indian civilisation into a child's world in ways that feel natural, joyful, and deeply their own.
This is not supplementary content. It is a complete, structured curriculum designed to stand on its own as a dedicated Indian Knowledge Systems subject, whether in a school timetable or a home learning environment.
Awakening to self and senses
Self-regulation & discernment
Relationships & belonging
Courage, equanimity & flow
Expansion, purpose & clarity
Yoga in Antarmukha is not just body postures, it builds a steady practice of attention.
Each chapter opens with āsana for the body or experiential activities rooted in Yama and Niyama that develop a child's natural capacity for stillness and self-awareness.
From the Panchatantra to the Upanishads, the Ramayana and the Mahabharata, the great stories of our civilisation come alive.
Children don't just read these stories. They live inside them for a while.
Art becomes a way of observation, expression and quiet creativity.
Working with natural materials and traditional Indian art forms, children discover imagination through practice.
Traditional Indian games become tools for teamwork, fairness and joyful learning.
Every game becomes a practice for living well with others.
A child who begins in Grade 1 and completes Grade 5 has not just read five books, but they have walked a path that has quietly shaped how they see themselves, their relationships, and their world.
Every session follows a clear, natural rhythm.
Antarmukha is designed as a standalone IKS subject with one to two periods a week on the school timetable. The learning progresses through a three-stage learning flow rooted in Indian thought:
Each book is written to be accessible to a parent and child together. Pages include dedicated spaces for the child to respond, reflect, and record, making every book a living document of the child's own inner journey.
A child who spends even one session a week with Antarmukha is, over five years, building something that no exam can measure and no amount of tuition can buy.
Unlike standalone IKS kits or one-off programmes, Antarmukha is a graded journey. Each book builds upon the one before it, deepening a child's engagement.
Yoga, story, art and traditional play are not separate modules. They are four expressions of the same philosophy and speak to one another.
Every book has built-in spaces for the child to write, sketch and reflect. It is a book to be inhabited rather than simply read.
Drawing from Panchatantra, Itihāsas, Yoga, Indian arts and indigenous games, Antarmukha creates a structured curriculum for today's child.
Directly aligned with NEP's vision of Indian Knowledge Systems as a meaningful and structured part of school education.
Developed by Vyūha Learning Labs together with Āgāmi Studio, combining curriculum expertise, design and India's visual traditions.
We believe a book should earn its place in your child's hands. So before anything else, have a look inside. What you'll find here is a small window into Antarmukha, exactly as your child would experience it.
If you are looking to integrate Indian Knowledge Systems as a structured, graded curriculum in your school, with complete textbooks, teacher training support, and materials from Grade 1 to Grade 5, Antarmukha is built for you.
We work closely with schools to ensure smooth adoption and ongoing programme support.
ENQUIRE AS A SCHOOLIf you want to give your child a meaningful connection to India's own culture and wisdom, one that grows with them, at their own pace, at home, you can order individual books directly.
Each book works as a standalone journey, and as part of the larger five-year arc when you choose the full series.
