World transformation through Individual Transformation! The world can only be changed by the spiritual unfoldment of each individual - not by political revolution, but by spiritual evolution." - Swami Chinmayananda

The knowledge of Vedanta is used to inspire people of all age groups and interests in a method most relevant to them. Chinmaya Mission's programs aim at achieving personal excellence and social responsibility in all people cutting across age groups through:

• Balavihar for children

These forums of learning, where individuals with varied personality types from myriad backgrounds discuss the principles of Vedanta amongst themselves and finally grow continuously towards lasting happiness and peace.

MORE THAN JUST A COURSE
"The Chinmaya Mission will never teach you anything. But it is an organization where all come together to learn. The Science of Reality and the Path of God Realization are the main subjects that you will learn in the Chinmaya Institution. There are also subsidiary attempts such as sharpening your personality, blazing your intellect, oiling your emotions, refitting your relationships, recharging your convictions, replenishing your values – in short, you will DIE and in your place a more brilliant person will be born. If you are ready for this Self-resurrection, come to the cavalry - The Chinmaya Mission." - Swami Chinmayananda
