This is Chinmaya Mission’s newest creative device to ‘catch them young’; a forum for anyone aged below 6 years. Shishu Vihar is an assemblage of infants, toddlers and young and new parents for early introduction to spiritual education.
Bala Vihar is a weekly gathering of children, between the ages of five to thirteen years that takes place in Chinmaya Mission Centres or in private homes, under the supervision of trained teachers. The aim of Bala Vihar is to help children bloom, grow, and inculcate values through fun-filled activities. Bala Vihar enhances the overall development of the personality of a child at all levels — physical, emotional, intellectual, cultural and spiritual.
A platform where youngsters are chiseled to become dynamic leaders for tomorrow with a spiritual base and a national outlook through experiential learning of our ancient knowledge and wisdom.
Chinmaya Setukari serves as a bridge between the Yuva Kendra and mature age devotees of Chinmaya Mission, ‘building bonds’ between the young and the old in these fast-changing times.
Developing an inquiring, reflective mind is the first objective of the Study Group.
The objective of the Devi Group is to impart spiritual knowledge thus empowering women to disseminate the knowledge gathered to their family. Devi Group training enables women to equip themselves with the wherewithal to promote tradition with wisdom and understanding. They play an important role in raising the cultural standard in pockets of society becoming catalysts for family, community and societal transformation.
The Central Chinmaya Vanaprastha Sansthan (CCVS) is the senior citizens wing of Chinmaya Mission uniting people over sixty years of age. CCVS encourages senior citizens to pursue the final spiritual goal of life and shows them the means to achieve it. It assists and trains householders and near-retirees (vanaprasthis) to make a smoother and easier transition from life in grihasta ashram to life in vanaprastha ashram.
The musical wing of Chinmaya mission, aims at experiencing divinity through Bhajans. Swaranjali doesn't demand one to be a trained musician, all that is required is *'music from your heart'* and completely giving oneself to the Lord.

Chinmaya Vishwavidyapeeth (CVV) was conceptualised in 2016, the birth centenary year of the inspirational Visionary and Founder of Chinmaya Mission, renowned Vedantic master and teacher par excellence, Swami Chinmayananda. On 16 January 2017, CVV was notified as a deemed-to-be-university in the 'de novo' category. The University has been established as a torchbearer for the preservation of Indian cultural heritage and its knowledge traditions through higher education.
Founded on the principles of Purity, Spirituality, Practicality and Innovation, CVV’s core mission is to blend the ancient and time-tested wisdom of India with present-day knowledge fields. It is breaking new ground where necessary and adopting the merits of all that has come before but always leaning towards the winds of innovation.
Striking a careful balance between Indian Knowledge Systems (IKS) and Contemporary Knowledge Systems (CKS), CVV offers several undergraduate and postgraduate programmes in areas ranging from Sanskrit, Advaita Vedanta, Applied Psychology, Business Administration, Commerce, Teacher Education, Hindustani Music, Law, Public Policy, and Vocational Studies in Tourism, Data Analytics and Renewable Energy Management, as well as a Ph.D. programme, along with unique electives and supplementary subjects, with the intent to mould the youth of today into well-rounded, responsible, value-grounded, young adults that contribute to the nation, and the world at large.
The University has acquired nearly 60 acres of land close to the present campus and is in the process of constructing a new state-of-the-art, vibrant campus that will support its growth for the next twenty years. With Gurudev’s blessings, it will only grow from strength to strength.
CVV currently operates from two campuses: the headquarters, referred to as the Chinmaya Eswar Gurukula (CEG) campus, (in Ernakulam, Kerala, India) and the Chinmaya Naada Bindu Gurukula (CNBG) campus, (in Pune, Maharashtra, India).
CVV is the result of the satya sankalpa of Pujya Gurudev Swami Chinmayananda. He envisioned this institution over decades before it fructified. Therefore it is our responsibility to join this Indian knowledge renaissance and make a positive change, for now, and for our future. For details visit: www.cvv.ac.in
