Celebrating Our Gurudev!
Pujya Swami Chinmayananda once shared that “the development of the disciple depends upon his capacity to tune himself to his Guru. The tuning to the wise is Satsang…”
Our CommUnity is most fortunate to have Satsang with the Sadguru-Shishya-Sambandha-parampara… Let us Celebrate this Connection to Contentment!

NEW EPISODE: Our mind is like a river -- sometimes it’s dashing and splashing with a never-ending flow of uncontrollable tides, and other times it’s calm and serene, slowly passing by like a lazy river. How do we tame this mind, so that we can use it for our own Higher purpose, rather than be controlled by its instinctive, impulsive, lightning-fast strikes?
How can we best use the teachings (mantra) of the Scriptures, so that we have a chance of practicing them in daily life? And before that, how do we even remember (japa) these teachings as we attempt to captain our humble boat among the rapids of our minds?

PODCASTS
A podcast on high thinking and happy living with Vivek Gupta.
We all feel we can create joy but that only leads to disappointment. When we have guidance in our lives we realize that joy cannot be created. How can one go from acting (karma), to depending (bhakti), to having insight (jnana), to prioritizing (viveka) to independence (vairagya)? How does one step lead to the next on this journey to joy?
On this season of Live Vedanta, entitled Stairway to Serenity, we’ll be exploring 100 words at the heart of our self-development. The more we understand these words, the more we can live by them. Want to catch up? Start from the beginning or listen to the last episode.
For those on the journey of self-development, Chinmaya Mission Niagara provides a community forum to listen, reflect, and contemplate. Follow us on Instagram and Facebook for more updates about upcoming live workshops, courses, and more!
Chinmaya Mission is an international non-profit organization working to transform individuals through the knowledge of Vedanta. Live Vedanta is produced by Nina Bhattacharya, Deepal Shanmugam, and Sudarshan Atmavilas.

Testimonials
Sharing by seekers on their journey of Self Development
“Meaningful Mornings has become a ‘sanity anchor’ that helps me to reign in my mind and speech daily and improve the culture of my home. I no longer feel overwhelmed and manage my time much more efficiently. I am much happier and calmer.”
Sonia M.

“I love Devi Satsangs because it is a constant reminder to me that the physical world pulls me downward and outward, and that I must reorientate myself to go inward and upward. It generates inspiring, uplifting thought vibrations that helps me to be cheerful always.”
Suhashini M.
Chantilly, VA
“As I entered my teenage years and early twenties, I became detached from these teachings and, for a long time, felt lost in purpose and direction… Now, I’ve finally found the supportive community that I’ve always wanted. I’ve finally found purpose in my life; seeking to help myself, my family, my community, my humanity, and my divinity.”
Rahul K.
