Nair Service Society, a great social organization of long standing founded by Sri Mannath Padmanabhan, added Sri Vyasa N.S.S. College to the impressive list of educational institutions run by it in the beginning of the academic year 1971- 72. Originally established in 1967 as Sri Vyasa College by the Jnana Ashram which has been doing great service in the spiritual field throughout the country for several years, this institutions has been catering, albeit in a modest way, to the higher educational needs of a large part of Thalappilly Taluk in a remarkable manner.The foundation stone for the College building was laid by Sri M.K.K. Nair on 9th April, 1967. The College started functioning on 10th July 1967 with four batches of Pre-degree students and in 1968 the student strength rose to six batches of 80 students each. Realizing that work in the educational field was hampering its main objective of spiritual work, the Jnana Ashram in 1971 decided to entrust the College to a responsible social body capable of giving shape to its ambitious plans. The Nair Service Society with its immense experience in the management of educational institutions at all levels, gladly accepted this responsibility.
The college is situated in a perfect naturalistic setting of the hill area that the educational experience here is enamoring and enrapturing. Just beside the college is the sanctum sanctorum, the Dakshinamurthi temple and the Jnanasharam, which complete the perfect blend of sanctity, austerity and nature's beauty - the elementary and essential requisites of an educational institution.
The way down the woods are "lovely dark and deep", so capturing and captivating that for a moment the pupils and the travelers forget 'the promises to keep' and the miles to go. Though the way is pretty long the natural beauty makes the journey a blissful event every morning. This morning walk refreshes, rejuvenates and rehabilitates not only the body but also the soul. The renowned educational philosopher Rousseau remarked - "break the walls, burn the books and throw the children into the bounty of nature". Some of the college walls are broken out of age and antiquity or rather the walls of hazards and shackles in the path of education are broken. The teacher - pupil relationship is remarkable for its uniqueness. The college has an unparallel group of teachers who are well experienced and dedicated. Their wise and timely rewards and retribution bestowed on the students are with parental care and affection.
