AUM

Chinmaya Mission


Every Friday 6:30 to 7:00 PM we chant the Vishnu Sahasranamam, or thousand names of Vishnu, a Hindu god. We believe that it is very important to pray and do good things, because god is the only one who can help you and give you Moksha (salvation). Every other Friday from 7:30 to 8:30 we have balavihar for kids. When kids have Balavihar, the adults have a study group. On days kids don't have Balavihar, we say the Lalitha Sahasranamam, thousand names of Devi.

Our Mission

We want to pray for peace and teach Indian culture to the present generation.

Chinmaya Mission Pledge

We stand as one family,
bound to each other with love and respect.

We serve as an army
courageous and disciplined,
ever ready to fight against
all low tendencies and false values,
within and without us.

We live honestly
the noble life of sacrifice and service,
producing more than what we consume,
and giving more than what we take.

We seek the Lord’s Grace,
to keep us on the path of virtue, courage and wisdom.

May Thy grace and blessings
flow through us to the world around us.

We believe that the service of our country
is the service of the Lord of Lords,
and devotion to the people is the devotion to the Supreme Self.

We know our responsibilities,
give us the ability and the courage to fulfill them.

Om Tat Sat.
