Swamini Krishnapriyananda of Chinmaya Jayam, the Chinmaya Mission Centre at Santacruz, Mumbai, took final refuge at the feet of Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda on 17 June 2021 at night, at age 61.

She attended the 8th batch of the Vedanta Course at Sandeepany Sadhanalaya, Powai, Mumbai, in the years 1991-1993. In May 1993, she received Brahmachari Deeksha and was given the name Brahmacharini Dharmapriya Chaitanya. She was earlier posted to Chinmaya Mission Centres in Vadodara and Noida, and she served at Chinmaya Jayam (Mumbai) since 2002. In February 2010, she received Sannyasa Deeksha from Swami Tejomayananda.

Swamini Krishnapriyananda worked with devotion for the activities and projects of Chinmaya Jayam. Her talks in Hindi, Gujarati and English were popular. She was particularly known for the Rudrabhisheka Pujas and Havans she performed and guided.

She will be remembered for the seva she offered to Chinmaya Mission. Our respectful homage to Swamini Krishnapriyananda.
