About Chinmaya Mission Delhi

Introduction

Chinmaya Mission was founded in India in 1953 by devotees of the renowned Vedanta teacher Swami Chinmayananda. Inspired by his vision, it has grown into a global spiritual movement offering educational, spiritual, and charitable activities.

About Our Centre

Chinmaya Mission Delhi is a spiritual centre inspiring inner growth and wisdom.

On his final journey, to Sidhbari, Pujya Gurudev, Swami Chinmayananda chose to rest awhile at the Delhi centre. At the very spot at which his body rested, he now sits, atop a granite pedestal, a picture of serenity and bliss. His presence continues to bless all those that pass that way and also those that do not.

Knowing that the need for understanding and wisdom would be most required in the capital of India, Pujya Gurudev appropriately named the Delhi Centre – Chinmaya Centre of World Understanding.

The spirit of Advaita is not to keep away from anything, but to keep in tune with everything. Swami Chinmayananda

Centre for spiritual growth.

After Pune and Chennai, Delhi has the distinction of having hosted the third yagna by Pujya Gurudev in 1953. The first Bala Vihar off site camp for children was organized by the Delhi centre.

Situated in Lutyens Delhi, the centre stands as a beacon of knowledge and wisdom. It naturally attracts spiritual seekers in search of deeper understanding and inner growth.

The centre owes its physical structure to the untiring efforts of Swami Jyotirmayananda and Sita Juneja (now Swamini Gurupriyananda). Though it came into being in 1997, after he attained Mahasamadhi, Pujya Gurudev’s vision and blessings percolate its very existence.

Its halls echo with children’s laughter, youthful energy, seekers’ questions, and the spirit of seva.

Outer integration comes only when inner integration is established. The way to establish inner integration is to make our vision and values spiritual. Swami Tejomayananda
