Chinmaya Mission

CHINMAYA MISSION

Chinmaya Mission follows the Vedic teacher-student tradition (guru-shishya parampara) and makes available the ageless wisdom of Advaita Vedanta, the knowledge of universal oneness, providing the tools to realize the wisdom in one’s life.

Vedanta, the essential core of Hinduism, is the universal science of life, relevant to all people of all backgrounds and faiths. Vedanta inspires seekers to understand their own faith better. Thus, Chinmaya Mission is a Hindu organisation and does not seek to convert other religious practitioners.

As a spiritual movement of the mission that aims for inner growth at individual and collective levels, the mission offers a wide array of Vedanta study forums for all the ages, promotes Indian classical art forms and operates numerous social service projects. Till date, millions of people across the worldwide have benefitted directly or indirectly from the Chinmaya Mission’s numerous centres, ashrams, classes, events, services and projects.
