what we stand for.

Chinmaya Mission Code of Conduct by Revered Gurudev. 1. By our thought, word and deed, we, as members of the Chinmaya Mission, should try to live upto and fulfil the motto as well as the pledge of the Mission. 2. We should spare time daily to do meditation and scripture-study. 3. Once a week, on any convenient day, we should offer worship at a nearby temple with the members of our family. 4. We should discover a life of harmony, first at home. It is expected of us that we do not, on any account, create any domestic unhappiness. 5. If there are children at home, we shall have at least once a week a satsang at home, consisting mainly of members of the family wherein reading of Itihasas like Ramayana and Mahabharata or Puranas like Bhagavata, in a language the children know, would form an important part. 6. When we meet another Mission member we shall greet them with Hari Om. 7. Daily offering of pranams to the elders in the house by the younger ones should be followed and inculcated by us, the Mission members. To give maximum happiness to maximum number for maximum time.

The 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 devotion to the Supreme Self.

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