Inspired by the perennial response to the age-old aspiration of the Rishis of our Arsha Bharata expressed in the Upanishadic prayer; "Thamasoma Jyothirgamaya", Kristu Jyoti College has taken "Lighted for Life" as its motto. The attainment of true knowledge makes one enlightened so that one can lead oneself and others in the path of truth and grow in to a full-blown person. Placid Vidya Vihar is committed to its motto, " Nurturing for wholeness"
As a CMI Educational Institution, the  College regards education as integral to the formation of the human person for  the fulfillment of individual and social responsibilities.  The College aims at forming leaders who are  intellectually competent, spiritually mature, morally upright, psychologically  integrated, physically healthy and socially acceptable, who are open to growth  and will champion the cause of justice, love, truth and peace.  We also aim at creating a just human society  where diginity of the human person is upheld, where unjust social structures  are challenged, where our cultural heritable f ahimsa, religious harmony and  national integration is cherished, where the poor and the downtrodden are  specially taken care of.
