  Chinmaya Mission: On the morning of 28 June 2025, Chinmaya Vibhooti came alive with divine festivity as it hosted Jeevan Hai Sangeet, a grand celebration marking the 75th birthday of Swami Tejomayananda, fondly known as Guruji. The atmosphere, blessed with cool rains and lush greenery, beautifully mirrored the devotion and joy that permeated the three-day event envisioned by Swami Swaroopananda, Global Head of Chinmaya Mission. Devotees from across the globe gathered in love and gratitude. In the inaugural session, Guruji humbly acknowledged the outpouring of affection, urging everyone to extend that love to one another, echoing the Chinmaya Mission pledge—“We stand as one family…” He reminded all that Self-Knowledge is the most precious wealth, fulfilled through Bhakti, and expressed deep gratitude to “2G”—God and Guru—whose glories must be sung with devotion.

In the same way, there is a very dire and demoniacal tradition called vendetta in a part of Italy called Sicily. If one member of a family has been injured or killed by a member of another family, the first family will not rest until they have taken revenge. Then the other family retaliates; it can carry on from one generation to the next—an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. This is also continuing perseverance, but it is dire, destructive in nature, tamasic. It is the same principle—never give up—but its results are destructive in nature. Again, in the same way, the human too can also be persevering—in the pursuit of one’s desires, the circumstances one wishes to create for oneself. And they may say, "Whatever the gurus may say, whatever our ancestors said, whatever illumined sages and seers may have said, that may apply to some antiquated age, but now it no longer holds good. At that time it might have been very wise, but times have changed. Things are d...

26/11/2018 The Call of Sri Krishna: The Gospel of Super Excellence - 6. : Swami Krishnananda (Talk given on Janmashtami, Sri Krishna's birthday.) A powerful interest that dominates a man's life polarises his mind, which then acts like a magnet and continually draws out from his stored-up experiences and also from new experiences whatever is relevant and useful to the end in view. Deep interest invigorates the mind, awakens its dormant powers and is the key to super excellence, invention and discovery. Hard work is another condition of superiority. The aspirant must master the knowledge and technique pertaining to his particular job; in fact, he must be a keen and lifelong learner, ready to pick up new ideas and new ways wherever he can find them. He must cultivate the habits of thoroughness, accuracy and reliability; he must take pains to check, revise and polish his work until it acquires as perfect a finish as possible within the limits of time available.
