Bala Vihar

Bala Vihar was born from Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda’s vision to empower children and build an inspired future. His message was simple: “Mold the child, Mold the future.”

As beautifully expressed by Guruji, Swami Tejomayananda:
“To help children learn values with fun, To delight like the moon and shine like the sun.”

Junior Bala Vihar is designed for children aged 4 to 8 years. These weekly 1.5-hour sessions are conducted at homes, community spaces, or Chinmaya Mission centres and are managed by dedicated sevak volunteers.

The sessions include Sanskrit shlokas, bhajans and patriotic songs, value-based stories, games, and art and craft, making value education joyful and engaging for children.

SOARING HIGH : BALA VIHAR SUMMER CAMP

The Bala Vihar Summer Camp 2025, “Unchi Udaan with Hanuman,” was held from 18th May to 1st June at the Chinmaya Centre of World Understanding, with around 140 children participating.

The camp focused on the inspiring qualities of Hanumanji—courage, humility, strength, devotion, and wisdom—helping children understand and apply these values in their daily lives through stories, discussions, and activities.

Children also enjoyed enriching sessions in Kalari Payattu, classical dance, and Sanskrit, encouraging discipline, cultural awareness, and creativity.

Guided by the dedicated team of Sevaks, the camp provided a joyful and nurturing environment for children to grow spiritually, emotionally, and personally.

The camp concluded with a touching Matru Pooja, where children honoured their mothers with prayers, flowers, and traditional rituals, creating a memorable experience filled with love, gratitude, and devotion.
